Okay for the past 2 weeks this hedgehod has been visiting my grandads house. when me and my mum went to go and see it up close we noticed it has alot of pus under its eye. Do you think this will be serious? shoul i take it to the vet?? It has 3 babies (omg they are so cute) so i dont want it to spread an infection to them aswell!

thanks for you time. xxx

Ring the RSPC, and they'll come check it out for you, and probably help the little hedgehog!!

Cotton wool and water,dab at it's eyes. Might help. If it gets any worse it might have an eye infection and need drops.

One is in my garden everytime I take my dog for a walk. Dog pulled a way a few nights ago and started flipping it round.

Yeah it's free.

Sorry I meant RSPCA* LOL. It's free and they provide healthcare, shelter and rehousing for it so it's definitely worth doing. :laugh:
