Well I had one of those goldfish you can win at a fair but I'm not entirely sure that counts. And look, I will allow joint custody of surprise hedgehog.
I suppose it could be worse. I have no idea what hedgehogs eat, but I guess I'm going to find out.
I want to say I decided to call it Goldie? Something with gold. Hey, listen I'm sure you'll be fine.
And look. The wine drunk is already degrading into wine tipsy, so I figure I'll be fine to go out by the time you get here. That... Is an excellent question. I could put her in my dresser?
Less than 10 is doable. Aren't they nocturnal? The bathtub might be a better idea, actually. I'll put a towel down so she's not just sliding around in there.
are they??? i don't know much about small mammals well besides mice good idea imagine youre a hedgehog minding your own business and someone sticks you in an ice rink i'm sure she'll appreciate it
[It's probably for the best- Nancy could argue for hours.]
I don't know! How much do you know about mice? It won't help with the current situation, but I'm curious. Oh no. Now I'm just picturing an ice skating hedgehog. It's about as ridiculous as you're probably assuming.
a decent amount. for work, when we do clinical trials like did you know they can sing? male mice sing to attract females, it's just at a frequency humans can't hear.
[ ...well, Peter can hear it, but he's not exactly completely human, is he? ]
i would not trust them with tiny blades on their feet
Okay, that's honestly really sweet. I had no idea.
[Perhaps because she's never really given them much thought outside of listening to her mother complain about them coming in the house during the winter.]
I don't know. I think she might be graceful on the ice.

maybe but i'm not complaining ;)
got any frontrunners?
also, fr where did you get her from??
omg what is that gif
I don't know. I've never had a pet.
[Mike doesn't count. Aha.]
Technically? She was a "house-warming" gift from my downstairs neighbor and I thought she was too cute to evict.
he has many important calls xD
not even a fish or a cute crab?
i never have either. always wanted one though.
only in new york i swear
what do hedgehogs eat anyway
nancy calling him like what's that noise in the background? lol
I suppose it could be worse. I have no idea what hedgehogs eat, but I guess I'm going to find out.
funnily enough that's almost verbatim the scene
aw, how generous xD
i'll ask at the pet store and bring her some dinner
should i bring some food for the human, as well?
that does sound familiar. I should do a rewatch at some point ahaha
I thought you'd appreciate that.
Counteroffer: if you haven't already gone to the pet store, you could just come here first. We can do the pet store thing and get food after.

how about the bath tub
that's tall enough she can't escape, right?

I had no idea she was so sneaky.
