Lol, everybody loves the cat food!!
Our porcupines are huge here, and there's no way to pick one up. DS had a hedgie, I wore gloves to handle it but it was quite a nice little fellow. Unless it got hold of something stinky. Then it would lather itself all over it's spines, ick! I'd love to have one ambling around in my garden!

I've never needed gloves to handle the hedgehogs around here. For some reason they seem to understand I'm friendly and succumb to my examinations without a single spine up.  I'd never eat one unless I was starving, and would prefer one of Mother's pesky roe deer before "our" hedgehogs.
