Handling a shy hedgehog requires patience and gentle approach. Start by creating a safe and comfortable environment for your hedgehog with hiding spots in their cage. Spend time near the cage to let them get used to your presence. When handling, approach slowly and speak softly to avoid startling them. Use a blanket or towel to pick them up, supporting their feet and body. Let them sniff and explore your scent before attempting to hold them. Gradually increase handling time to build trust. Remember, each hedgehog is unique, so be patient and consistent in your interactions.
