Janise103
Lover of Animals <3
Hello everyone :wave3: my name is Janise and I recently adopted a 1 1/2 year old :hedgie4: that I named Mwiba (which means 'spike' in Swahili). I was browsing the infinite internet in search for a magical place where hedgie lovers could share ideas, experiences, and information; here's where I ended up! lol
My girl Mwiba is sweet as long as you don't touch her, be near her, or make noise around her...so its pretty rare that I see her sweet side lol most of the time she tries her hardest to prove to me that she's the spawn of satan (even though wayyyyyy deep down I know she has to like me at least a tiny bit because I am 'the bringer of noms'). She is convinced that my salty fingers are also noms, so I've been nursing some nibbled-on fingers (and getting smarter, using a facecloth to shield hands when holding her). Anyway, long story short; she is a fiesty, rude,and hateful hedgie, but I :heart3: her despite her proving time and time again that she is possessed by the devil.
Loving her only goes so far, and I'm realizing its gonna take lots of work, patience, time, and dedication to get her to a point of being only slightly demonic. I hold her and read childrens stories to her every night, and let her explore her tub (like a feeding tub for feeding/watering livestock) that I fill with toilet paper tubes (her one weakness!), ping pong balls, treats, a tunnel, and a toy car. I'm hopeful she'll come around and maybe even like me one day!
"Hail Queen Mwiba!" :bow::hedgie4: "Excellent! I now have a slave to do my evil bidding..."
Anyway, I'm glad to be here among other hedgie fans and I hope I'll fit right in
