If you need to check on a hibernating hedgehog, do so minimally and gently. Ensure that the environment is quiet and warm, and avoid waking it up unless absolutely necessary. If you suspect that the hedgehog is in danger or if its hibernation period seems unusually prolonged, it may be best to consult a veterinarian who specializes in exotic pets for advice on the best course of action.
As a rule of thumb, it’s best to leave hibernating hedgehogs undisturbed to ensure they can complete their natural hibernation cycle safely.
