Star was quite shy at first, but has become a friendly and affectionate dog who enjoys her walks and toys.

Pixie was quite shy and timid when first arriving at the RSPCA, but has become more settled over time.
She will take treats, enjoys a bit of a fuss and doesn't mind being brushed now.
Pixie will need a patient and calm home to move into so she can settle in at her own pace.
She would do best in an adult-only space with access to a garden.
Freddy

Gender - Male
Age - Two years old
Breed - Domestic Shorthair crossbreed
Colour - Black and White
If you want to adopt Freddy you can view their full profile here.
Freddy came into the care of the RSPCA as a stray and as a result, was used to fending for himself.
While he likes attention, it's within his own limits, and he will need a home where he can explore.
The RSPCA adds: "Freddy's perfect home also includes a large garden, which he can access via a catflap whenever the mood takes him."
He would need to go to an adult-only home, ideally as an only pet.

Nationwide, NatWest, Lloyds customers issued HMRC warning
Experts have explained that Brits with long-term fixed-rate savings accounts might get an unwelcome knock on the door from HMRC. A lot of banks nowadays offer two or three-year fixed savings accounts as a way to grow your funds. But while you're counting the cash at the end of the term, you could be hit with a tax demand because HMRC views the interest from these accounts as income within a single year. Got a #sidehustle? 💸 We're here to help you get your tax right. ✅ Click below to check if you need to tell us about your side hustle income today. ⬇️ For some savers, the final payout could nudge them over the tax-free threshold, triggering a tax event. However, it's key to remember that this doesn't apply to cash ISA accounts, which remain tax-free up to £20,000. The current tax-free interest earnings cap for basic-rate taxpayers sits at £1,000 annually. Those on the higher-rate can pocket up to £500 without owing tax, but additional-rate taxpayers aren't afforded any tax-free interest allowance. Laura Suter, personal finance director at AJ Bell, told the Star: "Many people won't realise that [fixed rate accounts] could leave them with a tax headache in the future." She added: "You are taxed on the interest on your savings when it is accessible by you. "So if you pick a fixed-rate savings account that pays out all the interest at maturity, for tax purposes all of that interest will be counted in one tax year. Recommended reading: "This means that the interest from just one account could take you over your Personal Savings Allowance on its own." Ms Suter suggested getting an account where interest is paid out monthly or annually instead. She continued: "This means it is spread across different tax years. "Or you can opt for a fixed-term ISA savings account, where you won't pay any tax on the interest."

RSPCA charity celebrates volunteers for helping animals
RSPCA Cymru is shining a spotlight on its volunteers as part of Volunteers' Week, which runs from June 2 to 8. Volunteers play a crucial role in rescuing and transporting animals, fostering pets, and supporting the organisation's activities. Jo, a foster carer from Newport, said: "They have all had their own unique personalities and funny quirks. "Often they come from multi-cat households and are lacking a little in socialisation. "They may be scared of you and it's your job to help them realise that not all humans are bad." RSPCA Animal Rescue Officer Danni Wilson has fostered four dogs and 10 cats over the past four years. Ms Wilson said: "Myself and my partner absolutely love fostering. "It is so rewarding seeing an animal grow in confidence or recover from something medical." The charity offers a variety of volunteer roles, including animal transport, fundraising, gardening, and maintenance work at its centres. Abby Hill, area volunteer support partner for RSPCA Cymru, said: "We are so grateful to volunteers like Jo and Danni for their dedication and commitment to their role." Volunteer opportunities are available across Wales through RSPCA branches.
