Hedgehogs are absolutely gorgeous. :)
I once rescued one when i was driving to work. I saw it crossing the road in front of me with a McDonalds ice cream pot stuck on its head, it must have put his head through the circle in the lid as it looked for food, so i pulled over and went over to him, then grabbed the ice cream pot and gently pulled it off, the hedgehog had ice cream over his face as he scurried away. :)

They certainly are. I am blessed that I live around a hedgehog highway, and get more than my fair share. Well done for helping the hedgehog.

Thanks! Do you ever put food out for them?

Hi Savanna, yes I put out food for them. I buy dry hedgehog food online, and I also get some cat biscuits from my local supermarket. Have four feeding stations around the property.

Hi! :wave2:
Sounds like your hedgehogs are friends for life!
I used to put food out for a stray cat, not sure if that counts as a wild animal though, but i fed him regularly and put fresh water out, and in the winter i put a towel in my bin cupboard so he had somewhere to shelter.

Well done helping the cat. I put out two cameras each night to keep tabs on the hedgehogs. The feeder up in the garden, not so busy, but the one by my door is quite busy.
