Hello all, I just wanted to pop some pic's up of baby Mo. Unfortunately her other 3 Brother's and Sister have died over the past few days so we only have little Mo left. She is so beautiful and I am praying with all my might that she is strong enough to survive.
Mo has her teddy which she has been snuggling up to to keep warm along with a heat pad and lots of blankets!!!.
The story behind little Mo and her siblings were they nearly got burnt to death on a bonfire. A couple had decided to knock their shed down in their garden. They found what they thought was an old hedgehog nest (baffled why they didn't bloody well check to see if there was anything still occupying it!). They threw it onto the bonfire ready to light the following day. Twelve hours passed before they got ready to light the fire only to be stopped by the 4 babies squealing inside the nest. Had they not made themselves heard they would have been burnt alive.
The babies actually made it into the local newspaper with the Rescue Centre (WRAS) giving out warnings to people. I feel sad for the Mum too as she has either been scared off by all of the commotion or she was out searching for food when it was all going on.
Please keep everything crossed that this little baby survives. I will take photo's and updates coming.
Some super news is that I got one of my casualties back yesterday!!!. I found him in the garden about 4 weeks ago and he had some nasty head trauma. Billy ended up losing his right eye but he is as fit as a fiddle and I successfully released him at dusk last night. He got a big cuddle and a pep talk before he was released!!! he knows he always has a home and food here and whenever he is in trouble to come get me!!!.
Sorry the picture's aren't great but the light was not good. Billy is such a beautiful soul and hopefully he will live out the rest of his hoggy life fit and well.
Thanks for stopping by and hope all of my friends are well.
Big hugs Clare xxx

You are a very special person to take such good care of these little creatures. We love the wildlife in our garden but sadly no hedgies ever spotted (probably because of the 6 foot fence all round the place). We rehomed a couple from Carla Lane sactuary a few years back made a lovely safe little hedgie area at the bottom of the garden but they disappeared to pastures new overnight (before the fence was done). I hope little Mo makes it she is beautiful.

So sad that her siblings didn't make it but little Mo looks content with her teddy! It's so nice that you got to release Billy too. x
ReplyDeleteGood thing Mo has you as her guardian angel. I am sure she is a survivor.
