Keeping hedgehog out of the house, even picking him up (rather disgruntled), walking over my shoes, even trying to bite a piece of my shoes...

Must update the photos....

I forgot about that... we are a rugby family :-)

It is not that critical in many contexts as long as you are understood.

unfortunately I can't find any of the content online.

If we're talking disgruntled wildlife, the most irritating experience I had occurred while living in this loathsome apartment building: - we had a ground-floor apartment facing into the courtyard. The view from our window approximately matched the view of the swimming pool you can see on that page.

Anyway, one day I open the glass door and there's a hen-pigeon sitting on the "balcony". It looks a bit tousled and eventually I realize it has been in a rodent glue-trap and it has a strained muscle so it can't fly. I'm fairly happy just to close the door and let nature (in the form of other residents' cats) take its course, but my wife insists on bringing it in.

We - or rather I - got the glue out of the bird's feathers by massaging it with olive oil as recommended by various animal rescue groups, and then rinsed it out with soap. That damn bird was recovering in our tiny bathroom for a month or more. I would scatter some bird seed and a few crumbs of bread in a cardboard box in the bath and put it down there with a bowl of water, and it would eat once I left the room (sounded like a machine-gun).

After a few weeks we took it out and tried to get it to fly, but it still couldn't, so we recaptured it. After this, whenever we came back into the bathroom, it would be roosting on the shower curtain rail. After a couple more weeks, we tried again and it flew up to the top of the [four-floor] building so we figured it was okay. But it's a really irritating thing to share your bathroom with a pigeon.

Repeating some of the quoted text is almost as bad as top-posting. It still consumes extra net-time in transmission, extra disk space for storage, and extra cpu for display. It is also totally unneeded.

Please do not top-post. Your answer belongs after (or intermixed with) the quoted material to which you reply, after snipping all irrelevant material. See the following links:

Why didn't you just have squab for dinner?

Having a cat that roams around and often went catching things, finding mice, rats, birds or the limited amount of the remains is not uncommon in the middle of a large town.

Particular incidents include one night going to the kitchen to find the cat (aka 'your bloody cat') has two swifts in the kitchen half dead. Considering it is quite a feat for a cat to catch swifts (as they never land on the ground - airborne insect eaters), but TWO at the same time! I endured one of the times when the cat growled at me for trying to get him to take them outside!

The other major incident was while my parents were visiting, we discovered that levitation IS possible, as my mother did a perfect rendition of 50's cartoon as cat brought in a LIVE mouse and dropped it. Pleasant evening spent moving furniture to get mouse out of the house.

Let alone the stupid housemartins that flew through the eaves of the roof into the attic space to then die. We found one year 6 bodies in the attic space and a lot of flies.

Very interesting....

For those intereested diary updated as the hedgehog was released Sunday.

No, it sounds as if he understands Windows.

I had the distinct impression you were under 30 years of age.
