Welcome to Chip, Daphne and Elsa!

Chip is a tiny 136g hedgehog who has been wandering around a garden for the last 24hrs. No sign of mum 😩 unfortunately he has a badly injured eye so has had some painkillers and fluids

Daphne was covered in diesel/petrol and wandering during the day. She’s had a lovely cleansing bath and loving her all inclusive dinner!

Elsa (also known as Harper) is a very underweight and poorly hedgehog. She has an injury to her mouth but can eat and drink. Showing some signs of pain so has had pain relief and fluids.

He loves his puppy paste and has started to practice his ‘huffy puffies’ - got me a good one today with his wee quills which are becoming quite strong!

Cockpen and Carrington Women’s Guild have been fundraising for the rescue and I am so grateful for their efforts.

We have been able to purchase an amazing incubator which is helping this tiny little hoglet who was found out of his nest.

Thank you to Thistle Vets for bringing him to the rescue where I will be feeding him every 2 hours 😴

Welcome to Quill!

Quill is a lovely adult female who was spotted playing chicken with the traffic in danderhall at lunchtime.

Luckily the cars stopped and she was scooped up & kept safe.

She is now warming up and will be monitored overnight to see what is causing her to come out during the day. She definitely has not had babies recently

UPDATE: Sadly Pippin passed away. He was very wobbly and this didn’t improve after hydration, heat and medication. He ...

UPDATE: Sadly Pippin passed away. He was very wobbly and this didn’t improve after hydration, heat and medication. He cuddled in and let me stroke his wee nose as he passed ❤️

Pippin is a gorgeous little boy who weighs only 450g. He was found out during the day and was very cold and dehydrated. He has spent this evening on a heat mat and has had some fluids. It’s early days but hopefully Pippin will be feeling better much soon.
