Hospital for wild hedgehogs
Animal-mad Annette has even turned her garden shed into a dedicated hedgehog hospital, called Hugs4Hedgehogs, where she rehabilitates injured critters. Annette has adopted and fostered 26 African Pygmy Hedgehogs since 2015, and says she loves their quirky personalities. In the short clip, she explains: “They are quirky, funny, they have their own personalities. You get the really huffy, grumpy ones which I fall for straight away as I want to bring them out of it.”
