Hedgehog advice..

Hi Sue, sorry can't really advise you on your bruised chest other than seek medical advice, however maybe able to advise you on your poorly hedgehog, as I have looked after a few in the past. Well you've done the right thing about putting him in a box with a hot water bottle...(as long as its not too hot though) and if you can feed him wet cat food & give him some water this will give him some strength & stop him from becoming de-hydrated. Chances are he hasn't gained enough weight before going into hibernation & he's got himself cold & run down. Other than that you can phone your local wildlife centre & they will take him in. Hope this helps anyway! MelMel

Nope, you should not have a problem! Our skin isn't nearly as tough as our hunks of titanium. If you have any symptoms at all like you had before the pm, give your dr a call, but odds are good you just bruised yourself.

Why in the world would you do that? LOL I'm sure by now that if there was a problem, you would of felt it.

We don't have hedgehogs here, but keeping baby aminals warm is a good thing. Feeding them, well that is going to be a big test at best. Good luck!

Thanks for your comments but poor little henry hedgehog died the first night he was so cute but l think he was injured pretty bad.
l still have a nice bruise but that is all,no harm done l am sure,it was just a reminder that it was there because as time goes by you do forget dont you?
Take care,
