Many of the treats mentioned in this article are completely safe and appropriate, but grapes are certainly not. They are toxic to hedgehogs and have been known to cause kidney failure and death even in animals as large as dogs. The same goes for raisins. Here is a good reference to have handy when looking for what not to allow your hedgie to eat: http://wiki.hedgehogcentral.com/tiki-index.php?page=Toxic and here is a page citing the best treats to give them: http://wiki.hedgehogcentral.com/tiki-index.php?page=Treats Do not continue feeding your hedgehog grapes, Kirsten.

She generally nibbles at her food a little, and drinks her entire bowl of water through the night. However, I have a question about the grapes and things as well. My vet recommended that she eat leafy greens, and orange and green fruits and vegetables, like carrots, squash, papayas, celery, and romaine lettuce. Can you give me some more insight?

But today he woke me up real early running in his wheel, and playing with his toys, though I was tired I really didn't care, just happy to see him happy again. Thanks again! I'll continue reading your blog. :-) I guess I was over reacting, but when a hedgehog isn’t eating, it’s normally a bad sign.

It's funny how we always assume the worst case scenario when all it was is that he was bored with his food! :) However taking him to the vet was undoubtedly the right thing to do. Good luck with Shadow :) Great news about the vet Grace. It’s funny how we always assume the worst case scenario when all it was is that he was bored with his food! :)

However taking him to the vet was undoubtedly the right thing to do.

Good luck with Shadow :)
