Introducing Stanford!
- Type of Pet: Hedgehog
- Age: 3 years old.
- Owner: Luke Dawson (Student Support & Advising, Vancouver campus)
- Favourite thing about Stanford: He is incredibly cute to look at (but not to touch). He is quite an unusual pet and I enjoy introducing him to people for the first time.
- Stanford’s favourite pastime: Running in his wheel, hiding in dark corners and rolling into a ball.
- Interesting facts about Stanford: Hello!! My name is Stanford and I am an African Pygmy Hedgehog. I hate filling in online dating profiles, but here we go! I love long walks along the beach, and sipping Pina Coladas poolside. When I met Luke, my name was Boo, but he changed it to Stanford (I am not sure why but you will agree it is much cuter). I just turned 3 years old, which is about 60 human years old – I look good for elderly hedgie, wouldn’t you agree? Running in a wheel and dry cat food keeps me looking trim and terrific!
