HOPE FOR HOMELESS HEDGEHOG
SNUGGLED up in the hay away from the elements, this adorable hoglet has sought solace with a familiar friend. But the hedgehog it is cutely curled up next to is in fact a garden ornament. Tiny Drew was found with three of his siblings on a cold Autumn night in Druids Heath in Birmingham. A quick-thinking member of the public rang experts from Willows Hedgehog Rescue, who came to the aid of the prickly customers.
