You may be wondering: Why did he get more than 310K followers on Instagram? What is it about him that the Japanese are going crazy for?

Of course it's his killer smile! *heart eyes*

What happens when you are a passionate photographer and you own a cute pet? Of course the two must meet! Matthew's owner, Shota Tsukamoto, who is also a Japanese photographer, put his craft to use by styling Matthew and recreating the cutest environments all for the gram!

Let's take a look at some of how Matthew's daily life looks like!

Chill like Matthew, be like Matthew.

Okay, Matthew definitely got it from his owner. He's got the smile, he knows how to pose..... and he knows how to hold a camera.

 

Seems like we can even bring him on walks too! Gahhhhh! This is too cute.

Matthew~ Wakey, wakey~

According to Shota Tsukamoto (Matthew's owner), Matthew initially had a sister who is known as Darcy. Unfortunately, Darcy passed on (omg...) in Feb 2014. Since her passing, Shota moved Matthew's hedgehog adventures to Darcy's account.

Though it may be a little confusing, we are guessing it's done in remembrance of Darcy~
