Thanks so much for visiting me on for the first PawPawty of 2010.

I am so grateful for all of the support the PawPawty events have received throughout 2009 we have helped so many unfortunate animals have a better chance in life. The animal community is caring, thoughtful and full of wonderfully creative people who love animals and love to help out others in need.

To kick off the New Year we are having a mini PawPawty on Twitter  with all of the usual fun, games & lots of new pals to meet. Reply to the Twtvite and just come along and join in the fun.

As you know we usually support smaller charities, however I was heart broken when I read that the Dogs Trust Shelter in Merseyside was ransacked by thieves on Christmas Eve so I would like to ask for your help in getting some much needed food to the 100 dogs who are being looked after at the Shelter.

Find out more about the PawPawty events and how you can help us in 2010.
