No sign of hedgehogs here despite the warm weather. I had half expected
to see one.

We have hedgehog shit in the side passage.
[Better than in the back passage, I suppose.]

We would like to feed them but don't want to encourage rats and cats.

Last year we put out a little cat food, sited the wildlife camera, and got
pictures of a little cat.

I have a translucent plastic container about 12" square I hacked a hole at
one end, big enough for a cat's head or a hedgehog, and put the cat/hedgehog
food in a small bowl at the far side and put the plastic tub inverted over
it. Plonk something heavy on it. I feed my cat indoors though he views
mice and rats as food supplements. Birds too, sadly.

If a very small cat gets the food sometimes, they'll grow out of it. And no
very small cats round here, just bruisers.
