I have just been labelled a ā€œvandalā€. All because I wanted to sit on the coaster. The fact that the vase was already occupying the coaster is neither here nor there. It was in my way. 🐢🤨

If you have a garden, there’s lots you can do to encourage and support wild hogs, as Julia explains. You can also help prevent injuries by making your garden hedgehog-safe, and taking care when using garden equipment!. #Nipfest2025 #TortTalk3. (22/25)

Our tour of Prickly Edge started with the Intensive Care unit where hedgehogs are assessed and treated when they first arrive. Argo has been there since July, but will move to the ā€œBig Shedā€ and then outside when he’s strong enough!. #Nipfest2025 #TortTalk3 . (21/25)

So here it is - my microchipping! I’m sure you’ll agree I was very brave, and waited until they’d finished to pee all over the vet tech…. Thank you to Robert my vet for letting us share the experience with Nipfesters!. #Nipfest2025 #TortTalk3 . (17/25)

My vet is a reptile specialist and also servant to Sebastian the turtle, so has lots of experience with us beaks. The technique is not too different to floofs, but our chips are put in a leg as most of the rest of us is covered in shell…. #Nipfest2025 #TortTalk3 . (16/25)
