Now this is interesting....
. Hubby found this on a blog he visits...so I then found it on YouTube -- a video ... notice how the kitten tends to stay away from the hedgehogs? On the blog there were several more stills showing the solitary kitten staying away from the hedgehogs. The video explains a bit about the hedgehog, too, which the blog did not have.

Charming video, MrsD. We have hedgehogs in our garden and, yes, have fed them with tinned cat food when we had cats. We still watch out for small/underweight ones as Winter draws in and catch them to be collected by a local Sanctuary for the hibernation period.
In Folklore, hedgehogs were thought to suckle on cows in the field and roll around in orchards, collecting windfall apples on their spines to carry away. Neither is true. It is a fact that they are excellent climbers, dropping from a height is somewhat cushioned by the spines as they curl into a ball. They are also good swimmers, but drown when there is no shallow exit to a pond. Can you tell I like hedgehogs? Dave.
