The couple run Andrew’s Hedgehog Hospital and they feared they wouldn’t see their beloved Stephen again.
But on Wednesday night they announced on social media: “A miracle has happened. Stephen has been found fit and well.”
Mr Tett told the media that the couple received a phone call from a man and woman who saw Stephen’s cage, and when they checked inside, they were delighted to see the hedgehog.
“I just can’t believe it. Miracles really do happen,” said Mr Tett.
He also believes Stephen had been fed and watered.
Mr Tett said as soon as Stephen heard his voice, he reacted to it.
The hedgehog hospital cares for hundreds of hedgehogs near Scunthorpe.
Donations can be made to the hospital via their website.
