We gave you a sneak peek at this pet in an earlier Webkinz Newz story, and now we’d like to present to you our newest Webkinz plush pet, the Hedgehog!
UPDATE: The darker version of the plush that you see in the video is actually an earlier prototype of this pet that was updated after Steve recorded his video. We are in the process of updating the virtual version. Anyone who adopts this pet will see the darker version of the hedgehog on their Webkinz account until August 30th, at which point it will switch to the final version with lighter face (pictured below).
Check out this unboxing video, revealing the Hedgehog in action!
If you’re looking for a pet that’s a little different, you’ll definitely dig the heartwarming Hedgehog! This marvelous little mammal loves their sleep, so have them hibernate in their very own Leaf Litter Nest! When they wake up feeling famished, feed them some nice Nocturnal Nibbles!
Here’s a look at the Hedgehog plush, along with all of the items you’ll get when adopting one:

I ordered mine a couple days ago, I can’t wait for it to arrive!
Oh, very nice! I’m really glad they changed the coloring. it looks much better! ^-^
Ah, cool, I’m glad they updated it! I was a bit confused when I watched the video, because the plush looked a lot darker than in the picture (and I liked that one better.) I also like the virtual a lot better now! :)
Ah, I’m glad the virtual has been fixed! It looks much better now :)
I love it’s Gift-box so cute! Good job Webkinz!
Looks way better since you lightened the face
Hi Ganz! Just read your hedgehog update–thank you for the latest info on the virtual hedgehog–you guys are always listening!
Aww, Ganz, thanks for fixing the colors! Now I really want him! :)
Oh man, I am so excited, I already ordered one! I am really glad that they had an updated version of the virtual to look more like the plush, I like the contrast of the lighter face :) Anyways, am I good to adopt mine before the 30th, the virtual version will just be updated after that?
Hi kkofoed, you can adopt the hedgehog whenever you like. You’ll just notice the “switch” on the 30th :)
The plush is adorable! It really reminds me of a character from a movie or book, but I just can’t remember who. My friend said Mr. Pricklepants from Toy Story 3. I think I was thinking of a different character but I’m stuck right now. Hmmmm…
Maybe Mole from Mickey’s Christmas Carol. He and Ratty were trying to collect donations for the poor from Scrooge. I’ll keep thinking though, because I’m still not sure.
