Cinema staff have launched an appeal to help track down the owner of toy hedgehog which has been left behind by a filmgoer.

The smiley cuddly toy was found at Cineworld in Ashford after a screening of Finding Dory on Tuesday.

Staff say he wasn’t found on a seat and had appeared to go for a wander under the seats.

They say he’s had a lovely time watching the films, but now he’d like to go home.

On the cinema’s Facebook page the picture has been shared thousands of times, but after two days an owner has still not been found.

The staff said: “Hopefully someone can help us find out where this little hedgehog’s home is, as we imagine someone might be missing him.”

If you know who the hedgehog belongs to, contact the newsroom on 01233 895801 or email kentishexpress@thekmgroup.co.uk.
