To cut a long story short , went into the garden this morning to find a hedgehog had got it's neck tangled in the football net .
I managed to cut it free and luckily it was still alive - but only just . It's resting in a box of straw behind the shed at the moment , and it can leave whenever it wants to .

PLEASE , PLEASE : if you've got any netting in the garden ( football or gardening ), either raise it up or remove it for the winter . Thanks .

Also.....don't forget to put a little food out for the hedgehogs to build them up ready for hibernation.  Dog food or Cat food!

aww, it's so sad.. I've seen so many squished on the roads recently near where I live.. :-(

> Dog food or Cat food

but not IAMS as this can lead to liver problems! http://www.faqs.org/faqs/hedgehog-faq/part4/section-11.html

I meant the stuff in cans!!  :)  Feed my dog on Burns' but buy cans especially for the hedgehogs!!  :)

Netting?  Not a worry in my garden - it's Soli they have to watch out for, stupid dog likes to pick them up!!
