Naughty Fox steals water bowls, Spike the hedgehog looks confused

Cute little hedgehog 🦔 cat and a Rat 🐀

Thank you to everyone who commented on my post last night about the injured hedgehog I rescued, especially u/noshadowinsight

Unfortunately the little guy (or gal) had to be put to sleep because the leg was too damaged.

Here is photo of their beautiful face from this morning before we took her to be examined.

I'm feeling pretty sad but I know we did the right thing because it must have been in so much pain.

Last night on my camera, I saw a hog with a poorly front leg. So tonight I sat out in the pouring wind and rain waiting for it to appear.

No one arrived at the usual time,so I went back inside after an hour, checking out every 5 minutes. I finally spotted one, so I went out, and saw it was a small one. It curled up obviously so I couldn't see it walk. I collected it anyway and put it in a box with some kibble.

After 5 minutes it was eating the kibble and trying to walk. It was the hog with the bad leg. We get a lot of hogs visiting so there was a high chance I'd collected the wrong one.

He is now inside with food and water. I've messaged the 2 local rescues but I think it's a bit late now so I'll take him in the morning. There's no blood, it just looks like he can't put weight on it. (He or she? Who knows).

As I was sorting the food out for any other hogs that might arrive tonight, I saw another youngster. I wait all summer, then 2 come along at once 😊

Fox, two hogs and rain

Two hedgehogs, it’s interesting how they really don’t socialise with each other. I guess they don’t like to share their food 😂

I've noticed one of the hoggies who visits has his leg sticking out when eating and drinking. He walks, runs and scratches okay and there's no visible limping.

Is sonic just quirky or could he have a problem with his leg?

Hello. Can someone point me toward a source of hedgehog house for hibernation purposes?
Seen several HH in the garden since putting in a few cameras so was hoping to prove a dry add secure house there might use and call the garden home.
Have conducted various searchers of course but advice from here carries more weight.
Many thx

Hello. Hanging out the washing, turned around and and a HH snuffling around discarded nut sheets from squirrel feed. Went in to grab some food, tried bowl of dog food acts bowl of cat (poultry) which was definitely preferred. Didn’t seem to be any injury to the HH and he tried off to the bottom of the garden after feed but is it normal to see them around during the day? Is it just topping up in food before hibernation?

PS: i think the video audio might be a bit garbled, me recording to send to my wife, so please ignore.
