Sorry for the lack of posts lately but I’ve been finding it quite hard going lately, with nearly all hedgehogs arriving in extremely poor condition and requiring a lot of care and even worse some missing limbs the poor babies struggle on regardless in horrible pain probably caused by traps or strimmers. Sadly I’ve lost a few and it takes a toll. Some of the newbies are Cappuccino, Mocha, Latte, Coffee and Bean.

On a brighter note managed a few releases it the gaps in the weather. Sonia, Cookie and Smile.

Please remember that all hedgehogs out in the day at the moment need help quickly not later or tomorrow but ASAP. Please contain the hedgehog first keep wrapped in a towel with a warm hot water bottle or similar in a box and keep somewhere warm making sure they can’t escape. Contact me or your local rescue. Poorly hogs are very prone to hyperthermia so keeping warm is the priority as once the organs start shutting down there’s not a lot of hope.

Next to arrive yesterday evening was skinny so thin and cold weighing 450g but should be double that, I struggled to tell if he was alive. Sadly he was found the previous morning and kept in a cold shed for 36 hours before being brought in. Amazingly after 2 lots of fluids and some intensive warming he dragged himself to the food bowl and started eating. It’s early days but he’s putting up good fight. (Photos don’t show how thin he actually is and so weak he couldn’t stand)

I’ve been gifted this XL hedgehog house made by Little Field Country Crafts, many thanks to them and to Ann O’Donovan for recommending me.

So I thought I would use it to raise funds for the rescue so if you would like to bid for the house please message me with the amount.

You will need to be local to collect from me in Exminster, bidding will close at end of on day on Friday.

This young hedgehog was seen wandering around in the storm last night but by the time the finder got something to put her in she had disappeared. But found on the doorstep this morning cold and wet through. She’s been on a heat pad warming and taken a syringe feeds but not eaten independently and waiting a 💩sample to see what’s going on 🤞🤞🙏🙏 for her.
