Description

Hedgehog Hibernation House Starter Kit

This handy starter kit gives you everything you need to provide the best hibernation station for your sleepy hogs.

We would recommend that you continue feeding hedgehogs throughout the winter. Leave a little dry hedgehog food, dog food or cat food out for your hedgehogs in the winter. They will wake naturally from hibernation a couple of times during the cold months. But leave this food in your feeding station, well away from the hibernation house.

You could if you wish leave a dish of water near, but not in, the hibernation house. One of the reasons hedgehogs are thought to rouse from hibernation is to drink in order to avoid dehydration. So a little water on hand is sure to be appreciated.

The starter kit comes with a food/water bowl, a bag of crunchy hedgehog food, and a small bag of dust-free hay to make for a cosy nest. Hedgehogs like to make their own nest, so there's a good chance they may throw this out, but make sure you site your shelter near other nesting materials such as leaves or hay.

Hedgehog numbers in the UK are in drastic decline. One of the best things you can do to help is provide shelter and food. Check out our article on setting up the perfect hibernation shelter.
