That’s great to hear! And yes do try to build a hedgehog house or houses (they need separate houses for each hog). I warn you though, they are addictive. I started with one house at the end of July, and am currently working on the fifth purpose built berth, along with some other hideyholes I’m hoping may be suitable if I can build them a tunnel. I’m sat beside the first house as I write this andthe little hedgehog has just emerged, don’t know why she was in bed at this time. Maybe she had gorged herself on the cat kibble and needed a nap. You can use a lot of different materials to make the houses, I’ve seen several guides on the net. I’m rubbish at diy, so couldn’t build one of the cute little wooden ones from scratch, but have made mine from some concrete slabs and a wooden crate I got off freecycle. Best of luck and keep us posted with how they’re getting on.
