Give a Good Home to a Needy Hedgehog
Many of our patients are not able to be released back into the wild as they would not be able to fend for themselves We also need suitable gardens to release healthy hedgehogs that have recovered from their injuries or babies that have been hand reared, but are now ready for release. We are compiling a list of suitable places and people who would be willing and able to adopt one of these hedgehogs and give it the care it needs or would be willing to release a hedgehog in their garden and provide food & shelter and other care for it. Before you say yes I want a hedgehog, think carefully and remember that taking on any animal is a big responsibility.A disabled hedgehog will need a certain type of garden and conditions:
You will have to accept responsibility for it and agree to:
Please only contact us to offer a place if you live very close to us. That means within the Epping Forest District area ( Loughton, Epping, Ongar), West Essex ( Brentwood, Harlow & Sawbridgeworth) or East Hertfordshire (Bishops Stortford) or other areas very close to us. If you live elsewhere please contact your local centre and offer them help If you think you might be able to help, please read the dangers & garden and the captive pages first. If after reading everything, you feel you can offer a good safe place then please contact us by filling in the form on the contact page. We will not guarantee to find you or give you a hedgehog, but if your garden is safe & suitable we will put you on our list for when we have one. We always check and inspect the gardens carefully before allowing one of our hedgehogs to be adopted. We NEVER give hedgehogs to anyone who wants one to keep the slugs under control |
