Read on and you will see why entertainers using live animals need to charge more! Hedgehogs are very messy animals. Definitely party poopers! They need their cage and wheel and their fingernails cleaned daily and need a bath before each show to defecate! The hamsters need cages cleaned every 2 weeks using a scraper to remove the dried urine. The doggy needs constant care, grooming, teeth brushing, and walking, Vet bills are high especially for the hedgehog as it is an exotic animal. Purchasing hedgehogs is around $250-300. I try to get rescued animals. Of course, there is the expense of food and accessories. Traveling with animals in very warm weather is a problem. I carry ice packs in their cages! The good thing is that all expenses for animals in your show are deductible. For more info contact me at www.partyco-op.com
