Click here to see the profile of this user 		playpen size - 2008/02/03 20:35 Hi, I'm 14 and have had my hedgie for about a month

I have been trying to give her out of cage time but she always crawls under furniture and i have to pull her out. I read in a forum that a playpen would work, so i was wondering where i could find a relatively cheap one and what a good size would be.
Thanks!

Also try dimming the light when you play with your hedgehog. Offering him a blanket to hide under on your lap might help too. Hedgehogs don't like bright lights or loud noises.

Click here to see the profile of this user 		Re:playpen size - 2008/02/11 09:44 Petsmart sells small animal play pens in three different sizes ranging in price from 16.99 to 49.99. i'd say the 39.99 one is a decent size. 198" in diameter. look on the web site and enter "play pen" in the search option. Petco also sells the ferret play pen and that is about 9 sq ft. you can also look into dog play areas. they tend to give more space for less money. Lisa
