I’m proud to be a hedgehog* and the mascot of the kids savings club at Century Credit Union!

A team of 50+ animal-loving experts at A-Z Animals has ranked hedgehogs as one of the 10 cutest animals in the world, which puts a big smile on my little face and sends tingles through my spiked body. How do you like my copper color and 7,000 quills?

My job at Century is to teach you, in a fun and rewarding way, about the importance of money and saving it. When you put your money into an account at a safe place like Century, it won't get lost, can't get stolen and will grow because the credit union pays you a lot of money to keep it there.

So that you can get to know me better, this is how I roll:

• Likes: Sleeping during the day, running inside an exercise ball to stay fit, tunneling, camping outdoors with my best friends, Dibs, Nic and Bumper, hibernating during winter months, curled up in a ball in any place that’s covered, safe and warm enough and, of course, saving money at Century!
• Dislikes: Bad money habits, spicy food, seeds, fleas
• Hobbies: Needlepointing, making pincushions
• Favorite Food: Crickets, worms, apples, bananas, cooked carrots, cooked eggs
• Favorite Movies: Pokehontas, Sonic the Hedgehog, Quilly Wonka & The Chocolate Factory, Pinocchio
• Favorite Person: Shaquill O’Neal (legend in sports & entertainment)
• Favorite songs: The Hokey Pokey
• Favorite Movie Producer: Spike Lee
• Favorite Cartoon Characters: Quillma Flintstone, Goofy
• Favorite Plant: Cactus
• Favorite Phrases: “I’m on pins & needles” and “What’s the point?”

_{*A hedgehog is a mammal of the subfamily Erinaceinae. We're very intelligent, just like you!}
