Ellen A., I suggest toothpicks in your pumpkin to represent Hedgehog quills.

    this goes right on the “list of reasons why victorias mom should let victoria buy a hedgehog even though theyre illegal in california” list.

    p.s. MONKEYBLEEN!!!

    What a sweet little hedgie! Can he come over and help me with my pumpkin carving?

  4. Argentee says:

    Awww… Now I’m imagining tiny artistic nibbles to carve that jack o’lantern!

  5. Mary (the first) says:

    Whew.. something to get that hammy out of my head.. I know that was his tail but still a little unsettling. This little hedgie, on the other hand, is totally PC and adorable to boot!

  9. Annie says:

  10. sunnymum says:

    Aww i love hedges :) This reminds me of last holloween, i gave my male siberian chipmunk a hollowed out teeny pumpkin and he made it into an edible house. He was so sad when i had to throw it out!

  14. NeoCleo says:

    How keeeyuuut!!!

  15. Renae says:

    AnnieRexic it is so not fair that hedgies are illegal in California. I want one really bad! Course, their cuteness is practically a WMD, but still, it’s not fair!

    His wittle nose is so adorable!

  16. liz says:

    KAT!
    you’re telling us that and you didnt submit a photo ??
    what the hey!!!

  17. Annie says:

    Loveeee how you added the decorator window in your new home madge. when do the curtains arrive.

  18. Kara says:

    I wish my McHedgersons looked this sweet. He’s a grumpy old man who only perks up when he discovers that I’ve been away somewhere — thus my clothes smell like some other place and he can come up with a new excuse to chew on them.

  19. Kat says:

    i didnt have a digital camera at the time or i would have =(

  20. Ellen says:

    Happy Hallow-bleen!

  25. Kiddo says:

  26. Sonia says:

  28. luvinmalssomuch says:

  29. Erin says:

  32. Rachel of Cyberia says:

    Too early to carve punkins- they get too gooey. But maybe that’t the point for this lil dewd?

  33. Ponygirl says:

    NYgirly,

    Shouldn’t that be:
    Happy Hedge-O-bleen!

    AnnieRexic:

    Maybe you could get her one on the sly…..it could be Victorias Secret. ;P

  35. AnnieRexic says:

    ever since i found a pet store in oregon with the cuuuutessttt bebeh hedges ive been working on a plan to make one my own…..

    the most reasonable involves driving from los angeles to portland to “visit my friend in culinary school” and uh… “accidentally” coming home with said bebeh hedge.

  36. Hon Glad says:

    Watch out little Hedgie Jack O Lantern is going to kronche you wif his teeft.

  37. Sandi says:

    Peter, Peter pumpkin eater,
    had a wife and couldn’t keep her,
    So, he put her in a pumpkin shell,
    and there he kept her very well.

  38. Alex says:

    “Toothpicks” would be a great name for a hedgehog!
