Dude, you call this a half-pipe? It’s, like, totally made of construction paper or something, and it’s not even big enough for my skateboard! I’m, like, a professional athlete, dude, I don’t have time for this!
Love the tongue, Jacqueline T.!
This is Not a Half-Pipe

TONGUE-HANCE!!!!!
I can never get enough hedgehog in my day. It’s dusk over here, so I’m off to chuck out some mealworms and banana slices for our local gang. If they let me see the babies, I’ll send in pics. Cheers! Hedgehogs for everyone!
Come live at my house, dude. We have a skateboard park not far away! And I’d take you anytime you wanted to go. Come on dude, whaddaya say?
Ceci n’est pas une half-pipe.
I can’t even put this on my head, dude. Why’d you cut the cardboard tube in half, bro?
Hedgies! How can a little varmint be so cute?!
Rad!
Is that a smurf house in the back there?
I love the tongue too, and his nose, and his ears, and his pawsies.
I can see this being shopped into a killer surfing wave pic.
Une demi-pipe!?
Hedgehogs these days. I tell ya.
Squeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!! :-P
If this were a real halfpipe, I could totally get some righteous air, brah.
Man, I gotta get me a Hedgie!
(Tongue hance Lol!)
I want to know what quill-styling products he uses. That is one rad ‘do.
Where’s his mini skateboard?! I demand a mini skateboard for the hedgehog. And some gold rings for him to collect.
Edward, can we assume you live in England?
Tasty, bra. Literally.
This half-comment is half-empty.
Love the look of concentration, complete with protruding tongue, as Tony Hedgehawk sizes up the half-pipe for his next trick.
Also, I need to know more about the green mushroom.
Disapproving tongue-hance
This hedgie’s name is Bob! Bob the hedgehog. So cute & ridiculous.
Yet another problem for the world to cope with – a plague of rude hamsters running around poking their tongues out at everyone. Will the horrors never end?
Oh crap, i meant hedgehogs not hamsters – it’s early morning here in Australia and the coffee hasn’t sunk in yet.
YAY!! More hedgies….whoop! whoop! A hedgehog a day keeps the doctor away….isn’t that how the saying goes?
LOL @CoffeeCup I totally agree. Add some springs and tubes and watch him roll for those rings.
Michael Claymore…If this is your pre-coffee charm, you must have Mega Charm
after the coffee kicks in…
*O0<
Hedgehogs have amazing long tongues as my previous hedgehogs used theirs to good effect. I miss having hedgehogs so much since my last one died a year ago. I have to be content in seeing all those adorable hedgies on CuteOverload. This skateboarding hedgie is quite the rascal, isn’t he? The “Look” and figuring out how he will do his back flip on his skateboard.
An attempt at hedgie tubing, perhaps?
Duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuude !
What is it with hedgies and cardboard tubes? I have yet to see a hedge in real life, but due to exposure to them here on CO, now I must!
Spiny Norman.
I had a hedgehog once who would chew up his food and spit it onto his quills. Someone told me once that it was a instinct leftover from when hedgies would eat poison dart frogs and then spit the poison onto their quills to pose a bigger threat to predators when they poked them. Unfortunately, with other kinds of food, that doesn’t work so well. It just made his quills all crusty :o).
Oops, that was supposed to be a smiley face :)
Aw, shucks, thanks puddlepeppers!
Lookie! Bob likes baby food: http://www.flickr.com/photos/jayomatic/2431710550/in/set-72157604656631640/
@lucy’s mommeh; yes indeed, just outside Cambridge. We share an enormous garden and a horse paddock with neighbours, and get a fantastic array of wildlife. My office looks out over the garden, and I’m constantly distracted by pheasants or woodcocks or badgers wandering around. We also have a sparrow’s nest in the eaves right by the bedroom window…they’ve become my alarm clock. Unfortunately, at the moment, that means about 4.30. One gets used to it.
This is so cute!
My boyfriend and I are getting a hedgie within the next few weeks here and I’m SO EXCITED!!
Hedgie says ‘Pthhhhttt!’ to the non-pipe.
Edward-I’ll be right over!
Thanks for all of the positive comments! Bob is the cutest hedgehog :) You can view more pictures of him here http://www.flickr.com/photos/jayomatic/sets/72157604656631640/ and here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/jat_toronto/sets/72157603985420297/
Ps. The green mushroom is a toothpick holder!
Oh just look at those tiny little paws!
I second the smurf house sighting… it’s pretty adorable it it sleeps in there…
