a hat bobble



A kind-hearted woman carefully nursed a stricken 'baby hedgehog' overnight only to find out it was a fluffy hat bobble when she rushed it to an animal hospital.

The animal lover found what she thought was an injured creature on the pavement and spent a night looking after it.

The next morning, she took the motionless mammal to Lower Moss Wood Nature Reserve & Wildlife Hospital, in Knutsford, Cheshire, in a box meticulously lined with newspaper and even placed a small dish of food next to it, as she remained by its bedside.

And when she revealed the news to the rescuer, the embarrassed woman said: 'You're joking.'

The animal lover then sheepishly walked out of the animal hospital, box in hand.

An amused Ms Kotze said: 'It was the first admission of the day. The lady came in with a box, she said she had found this baby hedgehog on the pavement and it was cold and she picked it up.

'I was alarmed as it's very early for baby hedgehogs.
