I am movign tomorrow and Im worried about how poor he will take it. He really doesn't like change and I don't to have him all stressed out. I was goig nto clehim our tonight, but should i leave him in there for a coupel of days just so it does not add to the stress . I don't know what I am suppose to do. I figured once I had him moved into the other place I should leave him a lone for a few days. Or should I spoend more time with him because he knows and trusts me. Anyways lol hopefully someone will reply back nad help me out. Thank you.

Are you moving as in taking him by car? I have had to do this with my little boy who, like your piggie, is not a fan of change or car rides. For the ride I put him in a hedgie sack which i keep on my lap. the sack seems to cut down on the movement and he goes to sleep for the ride. I would continue your routine of taking him out when you get there other wise he will be overwhelmed by all the change. when you first arrive home i would put him in his cage and leave him for the night but the next night i would play with him again as usual. hope that helps a little...

Don't stress so much. My last hedgehog, Malachite, made several trips with me. Three times I took her from Virginia to Florida or vice versa. Nothing bad ever happened. I take my hedgehogs on little trips all the time and they don't seem to mind at all.

I think as long as he has his same cage and he is aware that you are there, he should be fine.
I would actually spend as much or more time with him just so he knows you are with him. :)

You may have to give extra hedgy hugs, but I am sure he will be fine.
