Some hedgehogs are very friendly and affectionate. Our Bailey is more of a loner -- he prefers to be on his own than to play with people. He's very timid around strangers, and he sleeps all day. If I were to have picked him up in the video, he would've made angry noises with a very groggy face. I'll try to post more of him over in the "Post Your Pet" thread, soon.

Oh he's too bloody cute by half. I just saw the pics and vid of him in Post Your Pet....wonderful. Are the hedgehogs you get over there usually so pale?

He looks a great pet. Seems very inquisitive.

Yeah, I'd say they're all about that color. They vary greatly, though -- some are very, very dark, while others are completely white. They also seem to be smaller than their Brit cousins. If you make fists with both hands and hold them together... Bailey is a little bit smaller than that when he is curled up.

My wife and kids were out for the morning, so I took the time to do a quick tour of the glatt house. Please come in and make yourself at home. The only thing I did to clean was put a suitcase away.

Enjoy.

Fantastic glatt. Beautiful doors and hardware, and your floors look great (how do you restrain yourself from pulling up the rest of the carpet?). I love the pumpkin dining room too. Great tour - thank you!

Thanks!

We pulled up small areas of carpet in other parts of the house, but the floors aren't as nice in those areas, so we left the carpet. It's a shame, since the floor in the living room is so nice.

The previous owners messed up the floors by gluing parquet style flooring all over it, and then later carpet over that. I keep having to remind myself that the only reason we could afford a house in this neighborhood was because the previous owners messed it up with stuff like that. Dropped the price down into our range.

Very cool home, Glatt. Thanks for the tour.

It looks like a comfortable and happy place.

And...If you ever wanted to work in talk radio, you surely have the voice for it.

Hey Ep! Your clip finally downloaded.

Thanks for taking the time to make the tour video.

It looks like a pretty big house with a big lot. Perfect for the dogs and summer parties.

Just coincidence that your cat started scratching on que?

I like your house and appreciate being able to walk through it with you.

I enjoyed sharing it. Wish my cam was a little more capable, but I think the gist of things came through, jerky movement and all.

Cat did in fact just do her thing because she wanted to at that moment. Do cats ever do otherwise? :-)

That bathroom cabinet is awesome. How long did it take you to get it to the point it's at now? I need a cabinet installed in my downstairs bathroom, if you're ever coming to Texas...

Thanks!

The cabinet took a long time, but only because I'm slow at doing projects sometimes. It should take about oh, 30 hours to do. I think it took me 30 hours over the course of a year.

After I finish tiling the downstairs bathroom in the next month or two, I'm going to finish the upstairs cabinet. Just have to make a face frame and some doors and drawer covers, and then paint it.

That was great! I love seeing these video tours. I really have to get around to borrowing our kid's vidcam
