Latest addition to the garden

Probably a bit late for this year but I have added a hedgehog house in a sheltered corner under a shrub. There is at least one hog in the area as I find 'little presents' around the pond.
UPDATE: the cat food I am leaving each evening beside this desirable residence is being eaten.

Sue - yes I do have some sadly. Though not as many as I used to have as many find they have to cross the road to get 'home' if they are found in the front garden.

Haha, my slugs/snails don't get the opportunity to walk home, after I've given them the boot (from the top)

That looks like a lovely cosy home, hope it is a hedgehog eating the cat food!

I think it might be a cat - grrrr. Getting a bit cold for hedgehogs to still be around.

Oh dear ...... on the other hand ...... makes sense ..............cat food = cat

Apparently the trick is to reduce the headroom over the food to a few inches, high enough for a hedgehog to get under, but too low for a cat.

Hope it works, are you still getting 'little presents' around the pond or have they ceased?

There was near the front door last weekend.

That certainly looks cosy. Hope they eat lots of slugs and snails. Whoops, maybe you don't have any!
