- Pick up the Hedgehog
Pick up the Hedgehog by slipping your fingers under its tummy. Alternatively use gloves or place a towel over its spines. - Secure the Hedgehog
Place it in a deep sided cardboard or plastic box. - Get the hedgehog warm
Fill a bottle (old drinks bottle or water bottle) with warm-to-hot water and place it under a towel in the box to ensure the hedgehog doesn't get burnt.
Once you have completed the steps above, please take the hog to your nearest vet practice to be checked over.
