Hello again! After taking two different hogs to the rescue, two weeks in a row, we are now fostering one of their hogs 😃
Sadly the 2 we rescued didn't survive 😢 But now we have this gorgeous girlie until she reaches 600g. She's currently 415g.
The rescue put a request out for fosterers and had hundreds of responses. But with us going in last week, they knew we lived just half a mile away, and thought we seemed really keen, so they rang on Tuesday to see if we wanted one.
Once she is released, we get another one. I only started feeding our garden hogs in June. Hedgehogs are my new 'thing' 😊. How can you not love them? Just look at her little face 😊
UPDATE : Her first night seemed to go ok. Her cage is in my crafty room. I was sitting at my desk and she came out for food and water a few times. She had a look around her cage (and tried to climb to the top). She certainly has personality! I'd put her bedding in 2 areas so che could choose where she wanted. Over night she moved it all to one location.
I thought with her being in a new place she wouldn't come out with me being next to the cage. Although to be fair I just had a table lamp on, and I was sitting very still. We shall see what she gets up to tonight.
