    Abstract:
    Hedgehogs are becoming increasingly popular as pets. This article provides a broad overview of those factors with which practitioners must be familiar to provide guidance to hedgehog owners. The taxonomy, anatomy, and natural history of the common pet species are presented along with commonly observed behaviors. Information on the reproduction and neonatal management is described. Current recommendations for handling, housing, and feeding these animals are also discussed.
