Henrietta the Hedgehog last night.

I had been out to put the cat food down as we have a feral cat that comes everynight for his food and then I went back into the house to get the hedgehog food for Henrietta as she is usally out of her house and ready for her food about 9.30 at night but I was running late and so as I came back out the house I saw the feral cat sat waiting and as I spoke he ran off (he's very nervous ) and as I was filling Henrietta's dish up I heard munching and there she was Henrietta eating the cat food
Good job it wasn't fish tonight for the cat!

Norty Henrietta

awwww Im so glad she came back!

Any idea where she had been for all that time?

Oh I must have forgot to update her thread to say she was back, she was missing for a few days but we have seen her with a big male so we
think she has been doing a bit of 'dating' we also think she is eating some of the cat food everynight before tucking in to her own food, which is ok but sometimes the cat has fish and fish isn't good for hedgehogs

Awwwwww she has a boyfriend!

well if she is also eating extra, perhaps you will be seeing some babies???

If you get baby Hedgehogs, please please pleaseeeeeeee can we have some pics? I love hedgehogs!

I've twice made my o/h pick one up to save them from cats trying to hurt them

Does the cat not go for her?

No not at all cats don't usually as the hedgehog will curl into a ball and the cat's hate the spines but I think with Henrietta and the feral cat I think they have just got use to each other now as I put the cat's food down and then fill Henriettas dish and so they are both eating at the same time usually

Oh I can't wait for the day when she has a little line of hoglets behind her sometimes I'm tempted to peek in her little house but I can't as she may leave if I disturb her and I don't want her to as she is safe in our garden, or I hope she is. I will be taking photos if I see any babies

Oh baby hedgehogs, bet they look cute

Must be funny seeing the cat and hedgehog eating side by side

Just gorgeous. When i used to work at a wildlife hospital i used to love working with the hogs. Wish we got them here. Would love a hoggie in my garden.
