Dear All ,You had me in tears today .Your generosity was overwhelming.Ive been hand rearing nearly 90 hoglets .We have three poorly ones ,but fingers x.I have never been this busy in six weeks ,this year is a record month .My stocks were very low ,so when the delivery man arrived I was just overcome with happiness for my hoglets and hedgehogs .I see a lot of very poorly hedgehogs ,and you can drown in grief.but the delight of babies sucking on the syring is delightful and takes away some of the hurt .I personally never forget each and everyone, as they are all different and have little characters .So from them and myself THANK YOU ALL VERY MUCH from the HEART .Barbara. My Lounge at the moment .

Dear All ,About three weeks ago I took a hedgehog into the nursery to have her babies ,as she was very heavy ,I thought it won’t be long ,but each day as I went into the nursery yet again no babies .Yesterday I was thinking it’s taking time it can’t be much longer .The box was very large and I had to juggle my way around as I had other on the floor as well .As I was getting a little worried I decided to have a good look at her .Well I won’t do this again as her being very heavy turns out to be a male .ha ha .Barbara

The night before last we had a whatsapp message from a lady in Nottingham saying that she had 4 orphaned hoglets, that mum had disappeared 3 days before so they had had nothing for those 3 days she had tried everywhere to find a rescue even the BHPS and got nowhere there is a website: Nottinghamshire,East Midlands
and nobody replied. She said that she didn’t know what to do. She was desperate to find them help, she messaged for advice. She said that they’d been coming out during the day squeaking. Seen as they had been there without food for those 3days felt that i couldn’t leave them so i went to collect them, if they’d have been left they wouldn’t have survived. It took 2hrs 6mins there and the same back. Its 94.9 miles each way which shows that we will do anything or go anywhere for a hedgehog, they always do and always will come first. I received a lovely message when i got back saying “Hope you got back safe. Thank you for all that you do as a charity. You are a credit to society and the wildlife are lucky to have such caring individuals giving up their time to look after them.”
This was lovely and meant so much after whats been going on lately. Thank you for your kind words.
As you can see from the pictures they are now rehydrated and doing well. Sorry for any trouble caused to Yorkshire hedgehogs rescues due to a mistake in area .

What is wrong with people? We have had a visit from two female RSPCA Officers today saying that he have a severely injured hedgehog that hasn't been seen by a vet. This is what my post from 29th May was about. Do you realise what you cowards/keyboard warriors are doing to Barbara or even care? If you had asked us instead of running to the RSPCA we would have given you the information even though we don't have to. Do you really think that if the hedgehog was suffering that Barbara would keep it alive? If you do then you DON'T know Barbara at all. Everything humans and animals deserve a chance and who are YOU to decide what happens, i swear now if i EVER find out who you are I personally will seek legal advice and prosecute because I (Wendy) have had enough of you pushing Barbara to the edge. If you don't like anything on OUR page then ask or leave, don't be a coward and report us. FYI the RSPCA were very happy with his treatment and medication that he is on and is speaking to OUR VET tomorrow and see what he says, they fell in love with him straight away and could see that he is NOT in pain he is NOT suffering.

Barbara said that you don't know what goes on behind the scenes, what we do, whether we have sent any animal to OUR vet who is also one of our Trustees or even if we had spoken to a vet. How can you have an opinion without the full knowledge, and go on only YOUR assumptions.

In the USA a young lady was bullied that much that she ended her life at the age of 29, this is what you are pushing Barbara to, you may think that i am being dramatic well you try listening to what she says when you do this to her. If this continues then we will close down our page and Barbara said that she will close her charity. I know that no hedgehogs means no Barbara because they are her reason for getting out of bed everyday.

Here are the links to the rescue in the US. There are two videos so watch both of them.

This is to show the impact that your bullying and nastiness can do to someone who is vulnerable, also someone whom you don't even know?

Mikayla Raines, the force behind the Minnesota-based Save A Fox rescue who found fame on YouTube for her devotion to helping animals, has died by su***de at 29, according to her husband.

DearAll ,This is Zippy, He is unusual in as much as he came in a few days ago ,having had his nose chopped off ,damage to a frontal bone and by lateral small rips and missing top of upper teeth.He looks so much better already .His injuries will heal by second intention,and at a later date he will require minor adjustments to his face bringing the flaps together .He has no infection ,and can eat liquidisd food exceptionally well as you can see .I do top him up as he just loves the formula .He has no problems with his breathing which is very reassuring.He is on antibiotics and receiving pain relief though he seems a contented hoglet .I just wish strimmerswere banned .Sorry for this short video we has call from another rescue for advice .Barbara

Dear all, I have been extremely busy, not that I mind. We are experiencing a high increase in numbers of hoglets, sick and injured hedgehogs. I’m not getting much sleep as I have had to hand feed over 60 hoglets this month alone, compared to last year of 64 at the end of July. Please don’t leave hoglets that are seen out on their own in daytime, these are most likely in need of help. Unless you are experienced in caring for hedgehogs, please contact your nearest rescue for help and advice please wear gloves when handling any hoglet. Many will die without the correct intervention Barbara.
