Sadly opal was euthanised. Her remaining extreme fear was linked to an underlying condition that was not feasibly treatable. We don't like being in this sort of position but we opted for the kindest route.

Jet and Jade are still looking. They have calmed down a lot since their introduction with 2 neutered boys and their split from their mum. We are still working with them in terms of their acceptance of handling. Both girls will take treats from us, they don't have a tendency to nip in the cage and are tolerating a small degree of handling.

They are still recommended for an experienced home, we feel these girls do have a lot of room for improvement. Any new home must be aware that these girls may require spaying to moderate their behaviour, we may get this done in rescue if need be.

Unfortunate error above, the post should have read 'ARE tolerating more handling'

All three girls are being spayed on the 30th, Jet and Jade are reserved and mum Amber is going to be paired with Pinky.

Amber is no longer nipping in cage and can be picked up without fuss, as can her daughters
