Title: Prickly blonde is rare find
Post by: thundley4 on September 09, 2008, 04:01:06 PM
The SUN (http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/article1667597.ece) is there.
THEY say blondes have more fun, but this one looks a bit PRICKLY.
Believed to be just a few months old, this little lass was found weak and struggling by a member of the public in Shropshire.

The hedgehog, which is not an albino, weighed just 110g when she was delivered to the rescue centre at the end of July.

Since then she has tripled her weight and should be ready for release in a few weeks when she hits the optimum weight of 600g.

Dr Andrew Kelly, manager of RSPCA in Cheshire, said: “We receive around 600 hedgehogs a year, often orphaned juveniles, but we’ve never had a blonde hedgehog before.
