C&B Sweet Hedgehugs

C&B Sweet Hedgehugs is a breeder of African pygmy hedgehogs in Michigan and the Great Lakes region near Detroit. The operation has welcomed these small mammals for several years under the care of Cindy Napieralski and works with a local exotic veterinarian for regular wellness exams and genetic screening.

Hedgehogs live in climate-controlled enclosures furnished with hiding spots and exercise wheels, and they receive daily handling to build gentle temperaments. Breeding females and offspring remain in a family room to ensure early socialization and reduce stress.

Cindy focuses on temperament and health, selecting breeding pairs for calm behavior and strong appetites. Owners often note that these hedgehogs adapt quickly to handling and exhibit playful curiosity around supervised playtime. Each hedgehog receives individualized attention and comes with a record of dietary and health history to guide new owners. Local reviews highlight the breeder’s patience and willingness to answer questions about hedgehog care.
