�Does a hedgehog need help? �
You probably heard that if you see a hedgehog out in the day then it’s ill … this is not always the case! The key question! “is the hedgehog moving purposefully?”
At this time of year females may be seen moving nests, feeding, or cooling if her nest is in the sun! The best thing to do is observe � and see whether they return to their nest. A hedgehog may need help if:


It appears lethargic
It appears to be sunbathing’ (hedgehogs don’t sunbathe)
Or if it is allowing flies to settle on it. If you’re unsure, please drop me a message.

�If you have a hedgehog that requires help
� please carefully place it in a high sided cardboard box (they’re good climbers!)
�Include a covered hot water bottle or heat pad then also cover the hedgehog with a light coloured towel - yes even in summer as a sick or stressed hedgehog will suffer from hypothermia so it’s important to keep them warm.
�Please do NOT offer any feed, only water, as the energy required to digest the feed can often cause them to deteriorate further.
