Motley and assorted hedgehogs

I have been adopted by a semi-feral/stray cat that just appeared one night and now has designs on moving in. It is one thing to feed Motley, named because of the unusual brown, black and ginger markings, but I am also feeding THREE hedgehogs as well.

The hogs (two juveniles & an adult) don't make much noise once they have full bellies and the cat doesn't bother them at all. If spooked, they pick up their skirts like an old maiden aunt and scuttle into the undergrowth. A few minutes later, three little brown noses peek out to see if the coast is clear.

Oh dear, I feel a children's book coming on....
