Now all that was left to do was to fix the roof on top. Charlie and Teddy heaved the roof into position and fastened it so that it wouldn't fall off. They also set out a saucer of water (not milk!) for the hedgehogs to drink, and checked that there was enough of a gap in the garden fence for any hedgehog to fit through on their nightly travels.

After such an energetic morning, the bears settled down with some lemonade and biscuits to admire their handiwork. Harry wondered how long they would have to wait for some hedgehog residents. Scary said that they might not even know there were hedgehogs in the new house as hedgehogs are nocturnal (that means they only venture out at night) and unless the bears stayed awake all night and could see in the dark then they might not even know any hedgehogs had moved in. But at least those hedgehogs would have a cosy place to sleep in when they did.
