Where can I buy a african pygmy hedgehog in Tishomingo Oklahoma?

I would recommend obtaining a hedgehog only from a member of the Hedgehog Breeders Alliance (HBA) due to their extensive Code of Ethics and guarantees against hereditary fatal illnesses. There are three HBA breeders in Oklahoma, located in Healdton (62 miles from you), Edmond (128 miles away) and Tulsa (160 miles). Hedgehogs, which are not rodents, are regulated under the federal Animal Welfare Act and breeders and dealers must be licensed. The vast majority of pet stores are not USDA licensed and so those that do sell hedgehogs are more than likely selling them illegally. One important thing to also consider is veterinary care. Please locate a veterinarian in your local area that is willing to see and skilled to treat hedgehogs. You might wish to have a look at the web site of the Association of Exotic Mammal Veterinarians to find one near you. Best wishes, Z. G.
