HWS Rescue Contact List

The HWS Rescue Contact List is a resource managed by the HWS Rescue Committee. The following people were approved by the Co-Chairs of the HWS Rescue Committee after submitting an application describing their hedgehog experience, veterinary information, care plans, and assistance availability. The Rescue Contacts volunteer their time to assist in finding nurturing, attentive homes, as well as acting as informative resources for abused, neglected, and/or relinquished hedgehogs.

If you are in need of assistance regarding the relinquishment of a hedgehog, or if you have information regarding a hedgehog in need of assistance, please contact any person listed in your geographic area. If you do not see any resources listed, or have any questions, please feel free to contact Sheila Dempsey.
