Hedgehog Café

Last week Peter and I visited HARRY.
HARRY is a Hedgehog Café.
What you do not get at this Café is coffee, neither anything else to drink or eat, but what you get is a hedgehog!
On your arrival at HARRY you will be directed to a table. Moving through the small room of the Café you can already see the hedgehogs in their enclosures. 

Than you have to choose. You can have a closer look at the hedgehogs first and decide which one of them you want to "entertain". The chosen one will be given to you in a box and you can have him for an hour. During the hour you can still swap your hedgehog, but Peter and I were very happy with the little fellow we chose.

Even though he seemed a little scared at the beginning he cheered up as soon as Peter had fed him the first "hedgehog-snack" we had bought. Afterwards we were able to pet him, lift him up, feed him more maggots and take lots of pictures.

It would have been very hard for me to give this cute little hedgehog back to his rightful owners after only one hour, but he made it easier for me and decided to go to sleep when our time was nearly over.

I have to admit, that I had a good time at the Hedgehog Café. While I have my concerns about wild animals being held like this, it seems like the owners do their best to keep the hedgehogs safe and well.
