We don't have him in a cage, as most cages are too easily climbed (and hedgehogs love to climb) which opens a lot of opportunity for injury. I went the "big ol' plastic tub" route and ended up with what you see, here. Once he gets large enough to stack the stuff inside and find his way out, I'll fashion some screened tops for them and add air holes to the sides. For now, he's not able to even come close to getting out.
The lego stairs (which assist him to get into the PVC connecting pipe) will also be removed once he gets big enough to climb without them, which will make it even more difficult for him to find anything to stack. Still, I'm sure he'd figure out a way.
...and yes, the "check cap" on the PVC pipe ensures that his home is exapandable enough if he ever tires of the lack of space. This pen proved to be really cheap and easy to make, not to mention easy to clean.
