Two days ago, I found a baby hedgehog. He was very friendly and I have played with him. This morning, I have found him in a bad condition, half bent around / curled up.

Can anybody please tell me how I can feed this animal? I know nothing about it, I am an IT guy.

Hedgehogs are omnivorous (they eat plants and meat) to feed them use cat food and water.

Wild hedgehogs do always have parasites (internal and external) I suggest you get it dewormed if it is possible.

Don't take it indoors as this might stress the hedgehog.

If possible take a cardboard box and make a hole in it and place it in a shaded place in your garden (hedgehogs sleep during the day and are active during the night).
