Are Hedgehogs Loud At Night?

When hedgehogs are awake and start their day at night, does it mean they are noisy? Do hedgehogs produce loud sounds as they explore, eat, and play in the evening?

Be wary: experts affirm that hedgehogs are loud when they are awake. What kinds of noises do these animals make?


When hedgehogs are placed in an enclosure, expect a few rattling sounds as they move around and explore. There might also be rustling sounds as they play or exercise and step on the cage shavings. The exercise wheels or other cage toys may also contribute to the sound the animals may produce.


In addition, hedgehogs may make other sounds like snuffling and grunting. Do not worry – these sounds indicate that the animals are healthy and happy. Chomping noises during mealtimes are also common. Yes, that is right – hedgehogs are noisy and energetic eaters. So, do you think hedgehogs can go well with your lifestyle?
