Loving that we have one hedgehog that visits every evening. Well, I assume it’s the same one every evening, I believe it is. Named him Harry, no points for originality and now the evenings are drawing in he visits earlier, usually before 8pm. Not many houses around us that he can access their gardens so very pleased he found us in the hole in the gate made for our 2 cats.
I assume he has been drinking well from the cat water bowl outside that I refill daily and now he has a good meal from the bowl of cat biscuits we leave out for him each evening. He really wasn’t bothered with the hedgehog biscults, neither were the cats but all are very happy with the cat biscuits.
One evening with the french doors open we even found him in the kitchen, twice, munching cat biscuits from their kitty biscuit tumbler dispenser. The cats seem happy to share. Luckily cat biscuits are not fishy.
Also very pleased that have never found a slug or snail on the garden, though maybe should be careful how much we feed him? He will eat a handful of biscuits each evening possibly more if the house doors are open. Chillier nights mean he isn’t popping in now though I do go out to check on him.
How much should they eat or I be putting out for him?
