Best Answer

In the wild, hedgehogs do hibernate. However, domesticated hedgehogs have lost the ability to come out of hibernation, and will die before they wake up. To prevent this from happening they need to stay in temperatures over 72º F, but not over 90º F.

Hedgehogs are fairly independent creatures. Try to give them at least 45 minutes of play time, which means running, hiding and playing on the floor.
