The Adorable Hedgehog
This animal is cute but it’s a bit smelly. No matter how smelly it is, it’s one of the most adorable and interesting animals found on earth.

Hi, I’m a hedgehog, and my nickname is =^..^=. I’m going to tell you about my personal story. I snuffle and snort. You may not like me, but I like myself. This is a REAL LIFE of mine. People say that I’m smelly. Well, I do have smell and stinky….but strangely, humans like my little one.

When I was small, I looked like a tiny pink blob. My mom nursed me with love until I’m big enough to eat slugs.

My back is covered with prickly spines. Now, forget about my snuffle. Forget about my snort. And never mind of my unbearable smell. I’m CUTE, right?

I’m a prickly little wild animal and I’ve a close relationship with the mole. I live in many parts of the world, primarily in Britain. Do you know that our species is a superstar in a story of “The tale of Mrs. Tiggy-Winkle”? In this story, my friend was described as a kind person. She took good care of Peter Rabbit and many other animals by washing their clothes. Today, I’m honored to have a place in Buckinghamshire which named on behalf of my species as St. Tiggywinkles. It’s a hospital that takes care for wildlife. The uncles and aunties at this hospital are very kind and helpful, because they nurse injured and sick animals with proper care and love. They’ve helped snakes, deer, birds, toads, hedgehogs and many other animals. When we, animals are healthy, they’ll put us back to the wild.

My spines are useful. They protect me from the attack of the enemies. I’m proud with my spines as they help me to survive in a competitive world.

Really amusing story about the hedgehog my friend. For awhile I had been thinking if they could really talk since the accounts does appear to have been an average hedgehog’s way of thinking. I wonder how are they related to the groundhog. You see I kinda like Bill Murray’s Ground Hog Day with Andie Mc Dowell. Regards and I can’t wait for more from you now that you’re back.

These pictures are so cute! I think hedgehogs look adorable but I must say they have a lot of very odd habits. My daughter got to hold one a few years ago at a friends house and she thought he was very sweet. She said that his prickles didn’t hurt at all. Do they make good pets, I wonder?
