Placed in a box with some food and placed in the garage, we decided to give it a few days before release. The best chance we could give it.


Hi Pab,

Well done rescuing the Vole, just a word of warning.
Cows Milk is very bad for Hedgehogs and I would guess maybe the same for Voles as well.
May be worth searching google or such like
