Holly from Stanley has rescued many hedgehogs and brought them into HogsCroft, she has hedgehog houses and feeding stations in her garden. When this little one was just sitting on her doorstep she knew something was wrong. Holly phoned on Friday morning and explained she was unable to bring Hazel in as she had a medical appointment but she knew how important it was to seek help quickly. Sandra, one of our volunteers, put the blue hedgehog light on her car and collected Hazel!!! Later p**p sample have revealed a lungworm burden. Hazel is feeling a little sorry for herself just now - she doesn’t have a lot of energy and we suspect that further p**p samples will reveal other parasites. Wish this little one well, she’s a poorly girl.

This was the second admission on Wednesday. Heather, who lives in Alloa, spotted this little one on a path when walking their dog. Another small autumn juvenile out in very cold weather and although it was dark this hog needed help. Autumn juvenile is a name given to hoglets who are born late in the year - they leave the nest at 6-8 weeks old at a time of year when their food source is scarce. They have very little time to put on weight before cold icy weather arrives and are very vulnerable. Not only do their small bodies burn up lots of calories to keep them warm, so they lose even more weight, but the internal parasites they normally keep in check, begin to multiply and overwhelm them. Scotland has enjoyed a very warm dry summer and a mild early autumn, but suddenly we have been plunged into very cold conditions. Heather phoned for advice when she spotted this little one - not wanting to interfere if not necessary but equally not wanting to leave the hog at risk. After a discussion I asked her to scoop it up. Heather and her partner drove all the way from Alloa to Inchture. Now named Mavis after her lovely mum, her p**p has revealed a large parasite burden - rescued in the nick of time! Thank you Heather for seeking advice and taking action - and thank you mum Mavis for your kind donation and your love for hedgehogs. Early days but little Mavis is doing okay!

Hello all
We are really short of large blue rolls and sterilising fluid as well as royal canin foods - like the ones in the photos. We’ve deliberately not attached any wishlist as these items can often be purchased much cheaper elsewhere but with spending so much on our new rescue our funds are very low just now.

Can you help?

When Gillian noticed a small β€˜bundle’ on her driveway on Wednesday evening she thought she’d dropped her gloves! What a surprise when she found little Kerry - named after Kenny McLean πŸ΄σ §σ ’σ ³σ £σ ΄σ Ώβš½οΈπŸ‘!
Gillian realised this tiny hog - whilst out at night - was very small to cope with the freezing conditions. She phoned for advice and was soon on the road from Auchterarder to Inchture transporting little Kerry in.
Not only is Kerry far too small but her p**p has also tested positive for a number of parasites. Now safely tucked up in a warm hutch and receiving the treatment she needs.
Thank you Gillian for your vigilance - this little one would not have survived much longer πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘β€οΈπŸ¦”

β€˜What me? You mean little ole me? As if I would p**p half way up my dining room wall? Look how good I’m being in my medicated bath! Can’t mean me? Really what a cheek!’ οΏΌ

Yes Fern it was definitely you!

So delighted to see this little one make progress - it’s taken a while for her to put on weight but there is no stopping her now - and what goes in …… πŸ˜‰β€οΈπŸ¦”
