Goonie ran away from home about three weeks ago
After searching *everwhere* for three days, laying a million bottle traps and practically covered the house in flour there wasnt much else i could do when she didnt turn up

So today i was watching telly and the dog went outside and started his "mum, theres a hedgehog out here!" bark. I go off to tell him to shut up, as you do, and sat in the drain in my garden is a freezing cold, terrified and ready to strike Goonie!!

Nice and safe in her viv now with a lock and cardboard stuffed in the gaps, just in case
No cuts or wounds i can see so hopefully fingers crossed for her




Any extra care or steps i should go for to make sure she's ok?
And when should i try and feed her?

I dont think so; there is a grid over it and she looks too big to slip through. If anything she might have been going there for water since it's all puddle-y near it from the rain

with feeding personally I'd go back to something slightly smaller than what she was having before she went on an adventure and then build it back up

glad she turned up alright

Little tinker, I think it's time for the "the grass isn't always greener" chat. So pleased for you.
