Helping animals throughout the winter.





Many wild animals in England need our help to survive the harsh winters that England can has.
You should leave out food for birds such as unsalted peanuts- as the salted ones are toxic to them, grated cheese, breadcrumbs that are moist, cake crumbs, cooked rice, cooked potato,cooked pasta, bacon rind that is unsalted, and fruit. Be careful with grapes, raisins, sultanas, and artificial sweeteners as they are poisonous to dogs. Also, their food should be placed where a bird can get it but not other animals. So keep the food high and out of reach for dogs.
Make sure your rabbit hut is cleaned frequently as soggy paper can freeze and make your rabbit quite cold. Make sure also that his water is changed as much as possible so there is no ice in it. Their food should not be given frozen or frosted with ice as it could make them very ill.
Here is a site you can visit to find out how you can help the hedgehogs who are declining and need our help: http://www.britishhedgehogs.org.uk/SOBH2011lowres.pdf
