| they also do it with things they really like, like my romance perfume...lua thinks she needs to wear some too so she always annoints with it-always! and if the bottle is sitting out and she can get to it, she looooooves to lick it and annoint with it too.
a lot of research was shown that annointing is actually developed from some type of self protection. when observed in the wild, hedgis would attack and kill posionous frogs and go straight for their poison glands and then self-annoint with the poison. it wold seem that the theory is that if there is a strong smeel or odor then the camo themselves with it in order to not be so obvious as something that does not belong.
there is still a lot about hedgies that non one seems to know and is still being found out.
