This sweet boy turning his bath water into tea is Ambrose.
Suffering from starvation and teeming with roundworm and deadly lungworm, he collapsed by a front doorstep, desperate for the residue heat from the house to keep his dying body warm.
The house owner saw him there in the morning, as he was going to work, but didn't realise a hedgehog out in the day is in desperate need of help.
It was only when he returned home at 9.45 that night and saw that the hedgehog hadn't moved, that he realised something was terribly wrong.
The irony is, this was all happening at the bottom of my road.
We seriously need education of our wildlife in this country, or we will lose these precious animals.
Please retweet my pinned tweet whenever you can.
Luckily for Ambrose the house owner ran up the road to me, and I took the poor boy in and revived him.
He's terribly sick, but the actions of the kind householder have given him the best chance of survival.
Please spread the hedgehog health message :-
Out in the day, not okay.
