They are very tiny. (omg tiny little hands and little whiskers so cute!) I don't think you would want to fall on a mouse or a hedgehog or really any sort of rodent (though I am not really sure if hedgehogs are rodents... they look like they are so in my head they are at least honorary rodents).
I've also had hamsters, rabbits, and guinea pigs. The hamsters were the smelliest and didn't have the nicest personalities, but they stuffed things in their cheeks. Very cute. Rabbits are fluffy but they dig and chew and my mom made me give mine away when I was little. Guinea pigs are great. I dressed them in doll clothes and gave them baths. They are bigger than mice though.
Of the rodents I've had, guinea pigs and mice have been the best.
Hedgehogs look neat though! I just couldn't get past the spikes, personally. Ouch.
