Policies & Adoption Information
Please note: by making a down payment and/or adopting from Cactus Hedgehogs, you are agreeing to the following:
Pickup/Delivery
• I offer pickup in Sidney, NY at my home. Pickup location will be provided when the animal is ready to go home; I do not post my address on the page or give it out prior to contract, as it is my home and I may decide to meet at
my local Walgreens or price chopper
• Pick ups are by appointment only. If you are more than 15 minutes early or late, please contact me before coming to ensure I can accommodate you.
• Airline shipping is not available. Terms, Conditions & Adoption Procedure
• A non-refundable down payment is required to reserve a Hedgehog. Down payments go towards the total purchase price and the remaining balance is due prior, or at pickup.
• Once a down payment is made, a confirmation email will be sent.
• You will be required to fill out a very basic questionnaire about how you will care for your pet.
• Before pickup you will need to fill out an adoption/no breeding contract.
• The balance due is required to be paid before or at the time of pick up. Pets will not be released without payment in full.
• At pick up I accept Venmo, Cash app, Facebook pay, PayPal or Cash. No checks or credit card orders are accepted.
• Babies cannot be reserved without a down payment.
• The posted date of when a baby can go home is approximate. It can change to be either earlier or later, depending on a variety of factors used to determine if a baby is old enough to wean from its mother. After being weaned the baby is monitored and must be drinking and eating well on its own before I will allow it to leave to a new home. Any changes in date will be sent through facebook.
• Our animals are sold as pets only and breeding is prohibited.
• I do not sell opposite sexes to anyone, including you and your friend, brother, sister, roommate, etc.
• Color is not guaranteed.
• Cactus Hedgehogs reserves the right to refuse to sell to anyone at anytime for any reason, even after a down payment has been made.
• I do not sell hedgehogs to illegal states and counties.
Care Packages for Pickup
Hedgehogs will go home with some of bedding that has been already used in a cardboard box, with a sample of the food he/she is currently on. This food should be mixed half and half with what you are going to be using to feed until the sample is gone.
Cages & Accessories
Cactus Hedgehogs offers habitat kits at very affordable prices. Money due with down payment. If you don't purchase your supplies from us, we ask that you talk to us about your habitat and accessories before you pickup to ensure that you will have the appropriate environment for your pet.
Refunds, Returns & Rescues
• Cactus Hedgehogs will take any hedgehog back at any time, but no refund will be given after 2 weeks. There are also no refunds on cage setups or cage accessories.
• If at any time you decide a hedgehog is not the right pet for you or circumstances change, the animal must be returned to us at buyers expense/time.
