Request: Ceramic ramekins (Hester's Way GL51) Received I'm looking for ramekins to put hedgehog food and water in so I can leave used ones sterilising. I've had to make enclosed feeding stations to stop the neighbourhood cats pinching all the food so ramekins are the ideal thing as they are weighty and won't tip up. I've still got 5 hedgehogs coming each night for food in my various feeding stations. Ideally in Cheltenham as I'll have to bus it to collect them unless you can drop them off. Many thanks for reading **Photos of some of the nightly visitors 😄
