hedghogs can be fun. You have to get them young though, and hold them everyday. And I mean for the first few months you have them you need to hold them and play with them quite a bit. I recommend going as far as to wear a t-shirt all day then cut a patch out of it for the thing to keep in its cage. Otherwise they never get used to you and will stay nervous and uptight all the time, making them a lot less fun.
If the hedgie is comfortable with you they will be about like a hamster. Except that you can let it run around the room with you. My ex wife played with ours all the time, hell, they would even take naps together.
I hear sugar gliders are cute but smell terrible. I could never get past the ferret smell, but they are funny as hell to watch. A friendly, litterbox-trained bunny can be a fun pet too.
