As regular feeder of hedgehogs feeding station in my garden over the last two years trying all sorts of things to deter cats realising tin cat food or dry cat biscuit which attract cats as it’s their regular actual food
Having a permanent camera linked to my TV in my feed station which I can observe the hedgehogs feeding at night
cats don’t seem to like a hedgehog food and since switching to just hedgehog food I’ve not had one cat enter the feeding station they just look in and move on
I have no special entrance on my feeding station but I have two entry points normal size 130x130mm
The brand I use (brambles or spikes) crunchy hedgehog food and (brambles or spikes) semi moist hedgehog food also a few dried (black soldier fly larvae Cal worms) not to confused with mealworms as they look similar
Water is important as well; I have a water bowl just outside by my feeding station
and water bowls around in various places in the garden,
hope this is some help to you
