Snow Princess


Whilst us humans may not be embracing the snow quite like we did when we were kids, there are some friends amongst us who are loving it!

Catherine has sent me this fab picture of our rotti Sasha playing in the snow this morning. Apparently she loved it and wouldn't stop eating it! I know a few cats that have been fascinated by it all too. It is wonderful to be able to give such joy to our animals as they await their new homes.

What has been particularly great has been the flurry of animal rehomings we have had in the last few days. We should see 2 bunnies, 5 cats, 1 kitten and 2 dogs making their way to new forever homes over the next few days - and no, not pets as Xmas presents either! In fact one home visit I did yesterday expressly told me they do not even celebrate Christmas. But what excuse do you then use for eating vasts amount of chocolate, mince pies and roast potatoes?
And the other amazing news to share is that an appeal in Trafford Metro newspaper for toys, food and treats has yielded a fantastic response and I have spent the morning sorting through around £150 worth of goodies.

It really is beginning to feel a lot like Christmas. x
