Exminster Hedgehog Rescue

In desperate need of newspapers very messy hogglets so going through more than usual 🙏🙏🙏🦔🦔🦔🦔🦔🦔🦔🦔🦔

When will people learn to check before strimming I had the most horrific injury to a lovely big boy, it had taken his nose completely off and its forehead the poor boy must have been in extreme pain sadly straight to vets to end his pain.😡😡🌈🌈🦔

Update - The 3 became 4, Then an another 3 arrive In two trips one was a beautiful blonde all weighing about 125g. Last night a little 105g one arrived from Ottery.

These lucky munchkins got reunited with mum who was caught 2 days later when she came back looking for her babies. Such a relief when these things go successfully well. Very quick photo when I had a very quick peek to just check all was well.

This little girl arrive this evening seen wobbling her way across the Lovely Vicky’s mum drive, another little one at only 109g such a cutie.🥰

This afternoon these little munchkins arrived after their nest was disturbed during the knocking down of a large shed. Weighing only 59g each, eyes and ears aren’t even open yet. 🙏🙏🤞🤞

Then there were 3, 3 little hedgehogs seen running around a lawn yesterday early evening. Only 2 were caught the other evade capture and brought to me luckily finders managed to secure the 3rd late last night and brought to me this morning. Weighing between 100 & 125g so far to small to out on their own.

This poor hog came in this morning suffering from bad ringworm and internal parasites weighing 567g but should be double that. He’s had a medicated/ moisturising bath to help soften the crusty parts and make him more comfortable. Treatment will commence tomorrow for the ringworm, he’s also had some antibiotics and pain relief🙏🙏🤞🤞🦔

Also I collected a large male found collapsed who I think had been attacked by a dog with puncture wounds either side of his head, he is struggling so I have been support feeding him.
