Raffle time!
Edit: congratulations Wendy Henessey!
I apologise for the quality of the video, but here is Remy, still doing well, thankfully, after treatment for both lungworm and roundworm. He is coughing a little, but not enough to warrant Dexamethasone or Ventipulmin, as his breathing is fine. He very much enjoys puppy mousse, which I am hoping he will soon be moved off of as it isn't cheap! 😅
Fingers crossed this little man continues to improve, but things are looking positive so far.
Thank you to everybody for your donations of newspaper, food, puppy pads, money, and just outright support of the rescue, it means so much to us ❤🦔
All is quiet here at the rescue. We would like to say a huge thank you to our supporters, and we have had some incredibly generous donations this month that have left us quite speechless! Thank you to everybody for supporting us.
We also received a huge donation of hedgehog items from a lady whose mother, who was a massive hedgehog enthusiast, sadly passed away. We will raffle these in the new year, and are grateful to the lady's daughter for thinking of us.
We hope you are all staying safe, and here is a video of the ever mischievous Jack, who takes twice as long to clean out because he keeps trying to climb out!
*Ahem* Here is the beautiful and not so little Alex, zooming around on three legs.
Today, Niblo finished her course of lungworm treatment, Elle began hers (fingers crossed little one), Georgie began his second course, Hugo and Connie just got to be left alone, and Heidi enjoyed her grub ❤🦔
Part 2 of 2:
Hugo came back after having some expert care at Jen's Hedgehog Rescue Corby, and had started to regain use of his leg. He has spent time here fattening up and continuing his rehabilitation, and has regained complete use of his back leg now, much like police hog Bobby earlier this year.
If you find a hedgehog with a bad leg, and it isn't hanging off or obviously needing a vet, always try to take it to a rescue first.
Hugo will soon be ready for release, and we are so pleased we didn't give up on him ❤
Niblo is enjoying his water tonight! Remember that even when there isn't a heatwave, (but especially if there is!) please leave water out for your hogs 🦔🦔🦔
Meet Niblo. This little guy has had one dose of fluke medication, due the second tomorrow, and has just finished the first phase of lungworm treatment. Fingers crossed for him 🤞
Gemma has taken her laziness to a new level today.
Today we admitted what we think is a little girl into the rescue. She has a severe case of ringworm, and is missing a huge amount of spines. She was out in the day so is unwell anyway, and is also covered in ticks, and skeletal. We have given her subcuts, and she is calling our new ICU home for now. Hopefully she gains some strength this evening.
In better news, Gemma finished her first course of lungworm treatment yesterday, and is enjoying her food.
