Hi Prof
Sounds like the perennial story with the cat!
Some of the male hedgehogs return as early as March – they tend to hibernate earlier as they don’t have to bother about raising hoglets. The females tend to return later, having hibernated later – here, sometimes as much as a couple of months. But there are, of course, some hedgehogs who aren’t hibernating – I still have one here. So it isn’t all that predictable.
