I must admit I wasn't too sure what it was at first, and didn't want to know much more either after I had sniffed a bit too close and got prickled! So, I resorted to my most relied upon mode of address towards things I'm not sure about - I barked!
Dad wasn't happy about that because it was really late - we had been watching the Olympics opening ceremony thingy - so he shooed me inside and let the hedgehog do his own thing, which to me didn't seem a lot as he just scuttled off across the lawn.
