It depends on the hedgehog, from what i've read. Ours is fairly docile, it will uncurl itself for my wife and I, and lay around, but it's not too hyper. Some hedgehogs are more active than others. Some are more social than others. I'd say ours is fairly social, not so active.
I don't think they are too hard to take care of. You just have to clean out their cage and make sure they stay warm. If they get too cold they hibernate (and die). They eat cat food, mealworms, and crickets. As far as getting along with cats...the cats won't be interested in the hedgehog after they get a nose full of quills (the quills don't break skin, but they can be uncomfortable). My cats like to watch it, but they don't bother it.
