It is Christmas eve! When Rose-Su and Elise woke this morning it had been snowing so everything
is now covered in snow! The critters who aren't hibernating are staying in the shelter snuggled
together keeping each other nice and warm. The girls have just finished decorating their Christmas tree..................

"A Christmas parcel has arrived from Gypsy Stella-Su my Mum.
In it are some lovely gypsy tambourines , one red for me and one in blue
for you Elise , a beautiful ornate cake stand and a Cute Critter sign for
our Sanctuary. There is another package too but for some reason she has told me
not to open until I hear from her! I shall do as she says.So I have put the
unopened parcel away. " Said Gypsy Rosa-Su.
"They are lovely." Said Gypsy Elise.
