This morning when I got home from Return of the King a hedgehog ran straight into my garage. It was dark, but it seemed particularly determined to get in there. Then it buried its nose in my lawnmower and refused to budge. I tried to convince it that outside is the place for hedgehogs, but it clearly had its little prickly mind set on an intra-lawnmower lifestyle. So I left it and went to bed.
Now I have a hedgehog somewhere in my garage, or possibly under the house. There’s no way out except the garage door or the door into the house. So if you have experience in hedgehog coaxing, I’d like a few pointers.
We found one in the bathroom once. *That* was a surprise! It hid behind the toilet so we left it to find its own way out.

I can see a multitude of merits in conducting a full and careful check for hedgehogs before taking a bath.
I was once walking at the university at dusk, when I saw a hedgehog cross my, path. I decided to stay very still, just to see what it would do. It came up and sniffed my shoe and then climbed on my foot and stayed there. I waited for a while, but it was still on my foot, so I moved my toes and it very slowy got off my foot and went away.
Either it was a strange hedgehog or hedgehogs are attracted to my black shoes.
Did you have any worms in your shoes?
