"“Our café owner, he loves hedgehogs. He started this business because he wanted to spread awareness of (the) cuteness of hedgehogs,” said Mika Inomata, who works at Chiku Chiku Cafe."
"Visitors to Chiku Chiku can spend up to thirty minutes with a hedgehog, petting them gently, feeding them and of course, taking photos. There are specific rules for a visit, do not touch their spines (a hedgehog spine is very sensitive), don't put your finger up to the hedgehog's mouth and if you're going to take a photo of these cute little creatures, do not use the flash."
"“Oh yeah there's a hedgehog café! They are cute and they eat a lot of meal bugs and they give you a glove and they fall asleep in your hands, but gosh they're cute,” he explained, to which Gorman replied, “I wanna go!”"
"“We literally walked by, we just stumbled across it,” said Tyson Sourivoug, who was visiting Tokyo from Australia. “(I) loved the feel and they're cute,” added Ryan Sharkey, also from Australia. Both said they'd absolutely, 100 percent recommend the experience to others."
Chiku Chiku Café in Tokyo’s Shibuya District hosts thirty hedgehogs for visitor visits. The café was started to spread awareness of hedgehog cuteness. Guests can spend up to thirty minutes petting hedgehogs gently, feeding them, and taking photos. Specific rules guide interactions, including not touching hedgehog spines because they are sensitive, not putting fingers near the hedgehog’s mouth, and not using flash when taking photos. Visitors from abroad described the hedgehogs as cute and noted that they eat meal bugs and may fall asleep in visitors’ hands. Many visitors said they would recommend the experience and consider it something to do in Shibuya.
