We just wanted to give you an update on Little Miss Sparkley. She is settling in well to her new foster home, she has been having short walks and is very good on the lead.

Like Pip says, she is just adorable; and loves nothing more than a fuss and a cuddle. She is at her most content chilling out on the sofa next to the radiator. She craves fuss and follows me around the house, I woke up the other night to find her snuggled up on the end of my bed. I didnt have the heart to move her she looked so cute. She doesnt like being left alone so I think her new owners will need to have lots of time to share with her.

She told me after she finished opening her Christmas presents, all she wished for this Christmas was a new forever home and she hoped she would get one soon. Can you help us make Miss Sparkly's Christmas wish come true?

We just wanted to say a huge congratulations and Thank You to Kate who raised over £100 for EGLR doing the Great North Swim. We have discussed it here at EGLR HQ, and she is definately either very brave or completely mad but either way; Thank you Kate!

This is Summer, who only arrived with us recently in a poor condition.

She was suspected to have a pyometra (womb infection) when she came in, so went immediately to the vets, who confirmed the diagnosis and needed to operate as soon as possible. She also had a bad leg which she held awkwardly and seemed to be in pain from.
