We have a stray dog that visits us at least once a day, and, two nights ago, didn't finish his cat food ( I have 3, and he loves their food better than the
dogs!) My Daughter, Val (Kimberley), went to put something in our wheelie bin, came rushing back into the living room, holding herself, breathing fast, and
trying to talk. I immediately thought she was having an Asthma attack, and reached for her inhaler. She shook her head and lifted me into my wheelchair and
pushed me to the front door - when she opened it, I was shocked to see the tin dog bowl tipped up, and, snuffling inside, finishing off the last of the cat
food, was the fattest Hedgehog I had ever seen! Obviously pregnant, it just looked at us, and carried on eating the food, then, proceeded to drink the water
we put out for the old dog, then waddled back, half way up our path, and back into the tangled patch of my front garden! We were speechless! Our Night
visitor has been back to its bowl every night since - I will try and catch it in a better light to take a photo for all you Sheenies, but I was filled with
pride, and fear, as, at the bottom of my 30 foot path is an extremely busy main road! I suppose I am too soft, but, it filled me with pride to know that we
still have these beautiful animals, even in a busy estate! I LOVE wildlife -except when its the 2 legged variety - Husband, and 3 kids, and Grandson,
exceptions Ha Ha. Does anyone else have Welcome Visitor's'?
