At first I thought it was two fat rats I screamed ran in and got my partner to come out to get rid of the “rats “ Oops

Cat or dog food I believe is what’s recommended! Should tell you on google x

@Amy Google said bugs , I didn’t fancy bug hunting 🤣

We used to put out cat food but no idea if that’s right 🙈

My mum gets hedgehogs in her garden and has set them up a house and has a “hog cam” so she can check on them 😅 There’s info here and it includes a list of what you can feed them https://www.rspca.org.uk/adviceandwelfare/wildlife/hedgehogs/garden

mine has always gone to town on some wet cat food specifically

Cat food. Some pet shops sell hedgehog food though x

Cat food or wet kitten biscuits Avoid dairy they’re lactose intolerant Shallow bowl of water too maybe

Wet cat food

Farley’s rusks! They love these and they are good for weight gain too

You can find bird food made of insects in shops. Or order hedgehog food. Dry cat food and dog food is very high in sodium. Each animal needs their own diet.

My Nana gets some every year in her garden and she’s always fed them cat food xx
