The Prickle Patch: Prospective Buyer Form
Thank you for considering adopting one of our hedgehogs! To ensure that our hoglets find the best possible homes, we ask all potential adopters to complete the form below. This helps us learn more about your experience and preparedness for caring for a hedgehog. We review all forms carefully and if approved, you will be notified and added to a waitlist. Once we have available hoglets, you will be contacted in the order of approval. A $50 deposit is only required to reserve a specific hedgehog.

How experienced are you with hedgehogs and their care?
*
No Experience — I have limited or no hands-on experience, but I’m actively researching proper care and am open to guidance.
Basic Knowledge / Some Experience — I’ve done research and understand general care needs, but may need help with species-specific standards.
Prior Ownership / Open to Updates — I’ve owned this species before and understand their care requirements, and I’m open to updated information or advice.
Experienced / Confident — I have strong hands-on knowledge and feel confident in all care standards, but will still ask questions if needed.
Please describe the type of habitat or enclosure you plan to provide (size, location, and setup). A photo of your setup must be submitted and approved prior to pickup.
*
I understand that hedgehogs require a consistent temperature of 76–80°F and agree to provide proper heating at all times (CHE lamp, space heater, etc).
*
I understand and agree
I understand that hedgehogs require ongoing care and commitment, including regular veterinary check-ups and specialized diet needs.
*
I understand and agree
I understand that if I am no longer able to care for the hedgehog, I will contact The Prickle Patch for a rehoming solution.
*
I understand and agree
I understand that a $50 non-refundable deposit is required to hold a specific hedgehog, unless otherwise stated. I understand that I must pickup within 10 days of the hedgehog's ready date or I may forfeit my deposit (unless otherwise discussed).
*
I understand and agree
I understand that all adoptions are final, The Prickle Patch is not liable for issues after adoption, and I am responsible for the care of my hedgehog.
*
I understand and agree
The Prickle Patch hedgehogs are pedigreed but sold as pet only at this time. I understand and agree any hedgehog adopted will not be used for breeding purposes.
