My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hey! My name is Mabel and I want to be your next best friend!

Some people get intimidated by my quills, but I think they add extra pizzazz! In my free time, I enjoy bathing in shallow water and hanging out with my owner. The more you gentle handle me the more I am used to it. With consistency I will grow to trust you more and more and soon enough we will be the best of pals! I'm nocturnal so I like to do my hedgehog activities at night. This means you don't have to worry about me while you're working or at school; I'll likely be napping! If you wake me up in the day time, I might be a little scared and confused because that's my night time. Just give me a moment to wake up first so I can realize I'm in a safe space.

I would love an enriched enclosure with a heat source and a few options to to burrow. A plastic wheel and time outside of my cage to explore a hedgehog-proofed space are a must; I love to eat so it is important I have opportunities to exercise. Speaking of what's best for me, I think it's pretty important you know what I like to eat. I do best on diet of a good quality kibble and mealworms, I am an insectivore after all!

If you're ready for daily hang outs with a cute little spikey friend, come on down to the shelter to meet me, no appointment necessary!

Additional adoption info

Before you Adopt
Pet adoption is a big commitment. We encourage you to spend considerable time thinking about and researching the type of pet most suitable to your family. Most breeds have their own characteristic traits and specific needs which need to be considered. Remember that some animals have lifespans of 20 years or more.

Prospective adopters will meet the following requirements:

- You must be at least 18 years old.
- You must have two pieces of identification, with at least one showing your current address and a picture.
- ALL FAMILY MEMBERS, sometimes including family pets, must be present during the adoption process.
- If you already have a dog and are considering adopting another one, you MUST be prepared to bring your current family dog to the interview. This will help you to determine if all family members and existing pets will get along with the new pet.
- If you live in rental accommodations, please confirm that your landlord allows the type of pet you are considering, and that you have paid your pet deposit before you adopt. There are NO REFUNDS OR EXCHANGES if the building owner does not accept the animal. In addition, you will have to pay all regular surrender fees if you need to return the animal to the Edmonton Humane Society.

If you are looking to adopt a dog or puppy please note:
Some of the dogs on our web site have recommendations on the age of younger family members. These restrictions are placed out of the concern of the dogs as well as in consideration of families.

Remember that new animals arrive every day. You may have to return to the shelter a number of times before you find a good match. It is better to wait and come back again than it is to take home an animal who does not suit your lifestyle
