Hedgehog

Hedgehogs are adorable little creatures that have prickly spines but soft underbellies. Much like a Dhu kitten, these cute little creatures have both interactive and ambient zests and come in their own special wearable container for safe keeping and portability. Hedgehogs can be placed on the ground so everyone can partake in gentle belly tickles while no one else can pick it up (Except the Janitor, which means don't leave it behind). When worn, they use a non-functional pin slot.

         HEDGEHOGS

This is a live pet hedgehog.  It can be freely altered, but it has to be natural-looking.  No hot pink hedgehogs!  It can have a show description if you choose, but it cannot have a long description.

As the owner, you sense you could hug, touch, rub, tap, poke, kiss, tickle, smell, and roll the hedgehog.  You can WRAP it to put it away and make it sleep.  If you set it on the ground, no one else can get it.  Do not leave it behind, because the janitor loves pet hedgehogs.
