They fit snugly into the palm of a hand and are as cute as a button.Sorry..?
And that's why the African pygmy hedgehog has - to the dismay of animal welfare campaigners - become the latest must-have handbag accessory.
Who the hell wants to put their hand in their handbag when an animate pincushion is lurking somewhere inside?
Oh. Right. Stupid people with more money than common sense…
They are, apparently, the latest pet craze for the rich, including footballers' wives and girlfriends, ousting the tiny dogs that were once carried in handbags.‘What about the fleas?’, people are no doubt asking.
I don’t suppose the hedgehogs will mind…

Who wants a handbag full of hedgehog droppings?
Will there be hordes of Chihuahuas (sp?) evicted from handbags in order to make way for these hedgehogs?

Well, they do come in many flav- er, colours: '...albino to apricot, chocolate and salt and pepper...'
