A fine sunny day - though not as warm as tomorrow is
predicted to be! - meant that we had an early evening visitor to the garden in
the form of a young hedgehog who came wandering across the lawn in search of food.
Although he was really out and about in daylight and that's usually a
warning sign for a hedgehog's health, we had a good look at him and could find
no signs of injury or ill health, So we offered a plate of cat meat and
crunchies which he attacked with a lot of obvious enjoyment - ditto the bowl of
fresh water which he slurped enthusiastically - so he was probably just
hungry/thirsty and determined to get to the food before the bigger hedgies w
Charlie the Maine Coon followed him on his way from the
hedgehog houses and sat watching with interest as the youngster chomped his way
through the meat on off. Charlie obviously thought it wasn't suitable for him
as he didn't even try to share it with him!
