will this work for hedgehogs?

I don't know why not. It is a natural bedding and is surprisingly great for burrowing. My African soft fur rats makes all sorts of craziness with it. I have no hedgie experience, but I'm sure it would work fine.

Yes, but I do not recommend it. It stinks even when it's clean. My hedgie does not approve.

See article by Ms Zeinert here Info 101: What type of bedding is best for hedgehogs? Carefresh is paper, it would work, but your pet may eat it and get impacted. Top quality cloth fleece appears best liked by owners and hedgehogs. I have Guinea Pigs for whom the Carefresh works very well and it is very absorbent and therefore easy to spot clean.

I would say yes. The spacing is very small that a baby hedgehog would do great in it.

I'm not sure a hedgehog could fit! The diameter is maybe 3 1/2 or 4 inches tops. Ferrets are pretty long and skinny. I guess it depends on your pets size...

Depends in the size of your hedgehog. My little guy ended up gaining more weight & couldn't fit the small. But if your hedgie is full grown & still looks small, I'd say go for it.

Absolutely not. Its okay for hamster or gerbil, but nothing bigger. I have owned a pet hedgehog and the Ware topper would not be the right size set up. It would be too small. Tubes, wheel, and actual cage size would all be too small for a hedgehog. Plus it would be very difficult to provide appropriate heat source. Here are a couple of links that I found helpful: For a great inexpensive cage idea: http://photos.hamorhollow.com/Articles/Hedgehog-Housing-Examples/20070506-180922-HAH/762062020_fLuGj-S.jpg For heating ideas: http://www.hedgehogcentral.com/forums/113-heating/4048-heating-your-hedgehog-s-cage-simplified.html Hope this helps :)

Unless the hedgehog is the size of an albino mouse, then no. The tubes are way too narrow for even a standard sized hamster. I would doubt that any cage specified for a hamster of any size would be too small. You may be better off getting a cage meant for a guinea pig or rabbit, since hedgehogs do tend to continue growing. There are links to make your own cages(which we did for our guinea pigs)on Google. www.guineapigcages.com/howto.htm is the site we used to make our cages. Total cost would run you about $40 and that is for the 4ftx2ft.

As long as they aren't chewers it should be fine. I'm not sure if Hedgehogs need a level environment and if they are able to go up and down ramps.

I would think so, it works for cats too and they're usually pretty light. I got mine for my Rottie and it worked great! but it has 3 different sensitivity settings so there should b one that works for a little guy too.

I would guess it does, it says its for Guinea pigs, rabbits and other small animals.

These are horrible for the moles and gophers so I doubt they will work for your rodent. Look for the ones I used a couple years ago, though I don't remember the brand. They are not as big, but vibrate the ground. This item stinks.

I've never owned a hedgehog, so I can't comment if a hedgehog would use the shelf up top. The first concern that does pop into my head is the bottom of the cage. The animal isn't walking on bedding, it's the same wire in the bottom that makes up the sides so the little hedgehog feet might go through the wire???

Yes, it will. We have a 28 inch high fence around the garden to keep out rabbits. The wire connected to the Havahart is about four inches off the ground and about 4 inches away from the outside of the fence. The groundhog used to have a path worn in the grass from the bushes by the garden to the fence but we have not have any problems with groundhogs since then (about four years now) though we see them in the neighbors' yards. The batteries last about two months or more if there are no weeds or grass touching the electrified wire.

I think it would work if it's a big hamster. It's a good size. We couldn't use it because we have dwarf hamsters. When it came I looked at my husband and laughed, the spaces in the cage are too big for a small animal. Good luck!

I can't see why you couldn't use it for a hedgehog I use it for my 2 box turtles and they love it it doesn't get too hot it's just right works great

Not sure what kind of requirements a hedgehog needs but I'm sure this would probably work. If they climb, the plastic bottom sides are probably high enough the hedgehog could not get up to the wire top. If this is the same 48X24 cage I got, make sure you have plenty of room for it.

We are using it for two larger guinea pigs and it is large enough for them, but probably could not accommodate a 3rd guinea pig. I have never had a hedgehot but I believe they are about the length of a dollar bill, give or take. If that's the case, this cage would probably work well. If the animal was small (like a dwarf hamster or mouse) the animal may be able to fit through the bars and escape. I have been very happy with this cage, especially given the price.
