The charity is asking for donations to help feed the baby hedgehogs in its care.
The Scottish SPCA is appealing for pet food donations to help feed the hungry hoglets currently in its care.
The charity is currently caring for between 80 to 90 hoglets, and are requesting donations of Royal Canin Starter Mousse, which contains vital nutrition for the hoglets during rehabilitation.
Scottish SPCA assistant manager April Sorley commented: “Generally hedgehogs produce young twice a year but we are seeing this go on longer due to the changes in weather.
“Many of these little hoglets need to be hand-reared so will need to be fed every three to four hours.
“Most of the hoglets will stay with us for around two months until they have grown and gained weight. Then they should be ready to be returned to the wild where they belong.”
She also commented on how the public can help hoglets in the wild, saying: “At this time of year we are urging people to take extra care when tidying up their gardens. Many hedgehogs come to us injured by garden equipment or a nest of hoglets can be uncovered.
“If anyone does accidentally injure a hedgehog, or find a hoglet, then they should contact our animal helpline on 03000 999 999 for advice.”
The charity is asking for donations to be handed in to its centre located at Fishcross, FK10 3AN. However, online donations are also gratefully received, and can be done via the Scottish SPCA's Amazon wishlist, or any other retailer offering delivery.
