What Happened
A Nashville family says their hedgehog Button became the household’s smallest procurement officer after repeated rustling near the kitchen counter produced one very strange grocery list. Between milk, bananas, and dishwasher pods sat “tiny towels” forty-two times, plus one entry for “emergency cucumber.”
The mystery ended when a hallway camera caught Button bumping the voice assistant button during his supervised evening wander. Each squeak, snuffle, and dramatic pause was interpreted as another spa supply request. By morning, the family’s shopping app was convinced a luxury hedgehog wellness retreat was either opening or already behind schedule.

Deeper Context
Button’s owners say they deleted the towel order but kept one tiny washcloth for morale. Button now naps beside it with the calm authority of someone whose business plan was merely delayed.
