Release 🦔🦔release 😁😁 because the temperatures are to constantly remain above the critical safety threshold 0c to 5c is ideal for releasing 😁😁(much better being in the wild doing what Comes naturally than being wintered in rescue)🛖all following the British hedgehog society training .stay safe 🦔🦔and sleep well when the time arrives 😁🐾🐾 Special Girl Eileen came in with three sibling sadly one passed away the first day 😔her brother George has been release earlier in the month . Charlie her other brother is still with us but doing well . It was touch and go with Eileen she was covered in maggots 😔😔in her eyes and ears 😔always a worry of what damage they have caused she also had roundworm and ringworm which had caused a massive abscess .she was a tiny 126g . I started all the wormers antibiotic but she was delicate and needed the abscess flushing .this is something we can do in rescue but I think the trauma would have been to much , so she was taken to the vets who can gas down so she was more at ease . And what an amazing job they did as always .🐾🦔🐾🦔after many treatment baths once the wound healed she’s now a free girl 😁😁🦔🐾🦔

A twist of fate could have saved her life 🤞0n a happier note we have had a few more releases just before the storm 🦔🐾Kingsley came in 176g full of lungworm , freezing and ringworm a very sick young man 🐾🦔Released to his nice new hedgehog house 🏡 746g😁😁😁

Morning Happy Sunday.
Gosh what a storm and another on its way.
Make sure your hog houses are well sheltered in your garden and kept dry from the rain taking the force of the rain and wind.
Leave out extra bedding in a dry area for the hogs to collect for their nests.
Thanks everyone.
