Helen ClaytonThis hedgehog has a terrible itch. They are always scratching. I shouldn’t laugh but I did at this 😂.
Oh and the slinky tortie cat from next door managed to wriggle down the tunnel and wrap around the baffle inside…I clearly need more baffles!
Jo@helenclayton when I was a child if you picked up a hedgehog, as I frequently did, they would be running alive with fleas. The ones I sometimes handle nowadays never have any obvious signs. I think they get ticks too
@Beedazzled yes, ticks, fleas. Sometimes treated some with ringworm when I helped at a hedgehog hospital. They had obvious bald patches. I’m keeping an eye. This one is very active.
@helenclayton yes ringworm makes anything look very bedraggled
