The first two interior paintings in the hedgehog feeding station.

@babe i looked over the details and compared them with the design specs from the local hedgie foundation and the only thing i can wonder is if there's sufficient ventilation but then your climate is not my climate so who am i to judge. You even accounted for protecting the entrance from young ones getting stuck underneath
@marten It is something I gave some thought to, don't worry!
The placement of it is in a spot that's shady by afternoon and so by evening should be well chilled by the time they come along to eat, though part of the reason for having the baffles roof lift up is, if we do get a heatwave, I can wedge them open a bit for extra ventilation if it's needed without them being opened so much as to be ineffectual cat defences

@marten I was a bit more concerned where it came to ventilation for the sleeping box mind you and shortened one of the walls to improve airflow

One thing has occurred to me, and is a devastating oversight I am now fixing as a matter of importance as a data controller: CCTV signage.

@babe That you thought to do this, and did it makes my day.

Before building any baffles, I just put a stick just inside the door of the hedgehog feeders. Just sticking up out of the ground.
A cat needs to be able to pull itself through the gap, so must get part of its body through to get a foothold, so it needs a clear space beyond the entrance.
A stick a few cm in stopped it being able to do that, but also meant in order to get in it would have to duck and turn to avoid the stick.@babe Do you have a picture or something showing the stick obstacle? I can't visualize it.
