Michigan Hedgehog Owners Group


MIHOG was created in order to aid Michigan hedgehog owners with locating care, products, and general information for their pets.

This web site is dedicated to the Michigan area, but also serves to help all owners provide hedgehogs with better care. Michigan owners will find listings of stores and veterinarians that are found within the State. All listings are either from my personal experience or from other owners in the state.

This web site is dedicated to my first hedgehog, Little Momma, who passed away at the age of 8 years. I had many problems finding good information about local veterinarians and where to find products for these little guys, and felt that there needed to be a place where others in my area could share information.

If you want to contact me or contribute to this web site, please use the link below. I love to hear from fellow Michigan owners, as well as owners from all over.
