Thank you for the kitten biscuits from the wish list, their was no name on the tag so I dont know who sent them, but very much appreciated.

I took Madri to the vets today. Had her eye checked just to make sure it's not going to cause her any problems, so she can be released.
Thankfully even though her eye looks odd and she is blind in it, theirs no problem with her going free as its not causing her any problem.
So I will soon be looking for a release site for her.

Fennel is now up to 457 grams. He came in at 251 grams. Nearly finished all parasite treatments. Just a mild case of ringworm to clear up.

The little boy that was found drinking from a dripping outdoor tap in the village is slowly gaining weight. He was 104 grams when he come in. He's now 145 grams. A very fussy eater. Will only eat royal canin mother and babycat biscuits no meet or mousse, I've tried so many types but he prefers the biscuits.

After having a week of no releases because of the hot dry weather this week we had a few night of showers. So another 6 hedgehogs have gone back to the wild in supported gardens.
Angelica and Alkanna two of the 5 orphans and Basil the last boy of daisy's babies all went to live with Sue and her family's hoggy friendly garden.
Aloe another of the orphans went to live in David's hog friendly garden in my village.
Cicely and Borage the last of daisy's babies went out in my garden.
No sooner had they all moved out, their hutches were cleaned out and sterilised and the next lot of hogs moved out into them from indoors.
Stay safe out their hoggys.
I'm still staying closed until more releases can happen to be able to free up space indoors.

For anyone that's interested these courses are good learning. Don't cost much. I've done them before.

FINAL CALL - BASIC FIRST AID FOR WILD HEDGEHOGS - ONLINE COURSE - SUMMER EDITION🐾🦔

A few places are still available for the last basic first aid course of 2025 on Tuesday night 19 August.

Learn what to do if you find a sick or injured hedgehog to give it the best chance of survival whilst you find a rescue space. It's the course that every hedgehog hopes you will join this year!

We will cover the equipment that it is useful to keep ready, how to find a rescue and lots of other essential tips and advice.

The course is online and, if you can't join live, you can still receive the video afterwards to watch back at your leisure. I answer all your questions during and after the course.

We will focus on helping hedgehogs during Summer including some tips on what to do if you disturb a hedgehog nest and orphaned baby hedgehogs. We will also cover top tips for helping hedgehogs in your garden over Summer including night cameras.

Link in the comments below and hope you can join me.
Here are a few of the lovely things people have said about my previous courses....

Spin the wheel time.

17/08/2025

I will try and do the spin the wheel later before I go on a two hour hedgehog rehabilitation zoom lesson later. Always good to keep learning. I learn alot from that group.
Thank you for the donations to the hoggy accounts. I've had to purchase more ringworm meds and fluke treatments as nearly out of both.
I've also brought the microchips and I have amazingly been donated a scanner. Thanks to Isabella who has donated that and will be sending it over to the rescue. Which has saved us money their.
