Scottish SPCA appeal for donations of hedgehog food after being inundated with injured animals
06.01.2023 - 08:43 / dailyrecord.co.uk
The Scottish SPCA is asking animal lovers to donate food for hedgehogs at a wildlife hospital.
The National Wildlife Rescue Centre in Fishcross, Clackmannanshire, is 'desperate' for donations of hedgehog food after a busy winter period. They currently have over 60 hedgehogs and 'plenty of hungry mouths to feed' at their facility.
As well as Brambles hedgehog food the rescue centre are also appealing for Whiskas cat food for the hedgehogs in their care like Grey.
All cat food donations must be non-fish based. Food can be purchased from the centre’s Amazon wish list or via any other online retailer offering direct delivery to the centre.
Centre assistant manager, Maddie Milburn, said: “We are running extremely low on hedgehog food and wet cat food which we use to feed the hedgehogs at our centre. Hedgehogs come in to our care when they are sick or injured.
"Grey came to us at the beginning of October weighing just over 100g. He was riddled with ringworm which had affected his face and one side of his body causing lesions to his skin. This sadly made his spikes and hair fall out.
“After a few months of treatment he was successfully rehabilitated. He reached a healthy weight of 600g and was released just before Christmas.
“We need your help to get more of our hedgehogs strong and healthy enough to be released back in to the wild where they belong. We’d be so grateful for any donations that people can spare, and we know our hedgehogs will be too!”
Food items can be donated via the centre’s Amazon wish list here: https://amzn.to/3ln57KT or sent from another online retailer that can deliver. Items can also be handed in daily between 1pm and 4pm to the reception at the Scottish SPCA National Wildlife Rescue Centre, Fishcross,
