Hi Hedgie Lover

I’m going to try to send this reply in two parts, because the last time it didn’t work.

Glad to hear you have Calvin back.

Re. Saphire. Hogs do need to drink water, but it may be, at this time of the year, that she has been able to find water elsewhere. I would keep supplying water, though, in case any alternative water source dries up or becomes inaccessible.

I suggest you draw their attention to: https://www.hedgehogstreet.org/guidance-on-releasing-rehabilitated-hedgehogs/ and make sure that they have the information contained in this paper: https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10344-018-1244-4
