Bernard Sanctuary
Bernard is a middle-aged African Pygmy Hedgehog with only three feet as his mother chewed one off when he was young. He is 18 months old, underweight and rather grumpy at life.
Bernard remained in Sanctuary at Crittery, due to his disability and temperament. He remained a very grumpy chap, never liking human interaction though he did appreciate being supplied with interesting foods and rarely bit. He developed cateracts in later life, though these did not bother him both. Sadly, he developed a tumour at 4.5 years of age and had to be put to sleep.
Further Details
Bernard is an interesting character who is not keen on humans. He is a picky eater, but will annoint readily at interesting foods providing you aren't silly enough to try and hand feed him. He loves having some time to run around the floor and explore toys. Though he only tolerates adults, he has bonded rather well with our small person.
