Around the hedges of the GSPCA and at our vedge hedge stall we have hidden and placed teddies and dolls where a child can collect one for free, but donations very much appreciated at this very difficult time.
With only a week to go we want you to get your entries in free of charge to enter #PetorateToCelebrate
A local winner will go through to compete against entries from across the British Isles and Ireland and this is a great way to celebrate and show your support to animal charities.
When you have your #PetorateToCelebrate display up we would love to see your pictures online ideally with the hashtag #PetoratetoCelebrate
This June animal rescues are asking to you to ‘Petorate’ your garden, front window or car with cuddly toys, animal scarecrows, pet pictures or even your animal ornaments to show your support to the many animal charities battling through the Covid-19 pandemic we all face.
With many of us at home we all need to bring some fun to our community and brighten each others day. Decorating your home, garden or car with toy animals, pictures or ornaments is a fantastic way to show your support to animals in need and bring a smile to passers by.
There are those that worry what would happen to our pets if something happened and we were rushed into hospital leaving our pets in our home.
At the GSPCA we have been highlighting this especially since the Covid-19 pandemic began as it is extremely important that our pets are safe and have the care they require even when something happens to the owner.
The ‘In An Emergency There Are Pets Inside’ poster has been created to help put owners minds at rest and ensure that no pets are left at home if something was to happen to them.
The Association of Dogs and Cats Home (ADCH) has launched an Emergency Fund for animal rescues across the British Isles, to help them continue their vital work during the coronavirus outbreak.
This comes in response to a survey of rescue and rehoming organisations by ADCH, the sector umbrella body for companion animal rescue organisations, which revealed:
• 100% said their income had reduced;
• 61% said they have reduced staff numbers (the majority through furloughing);
• 55% said that fundraising income had already reduced by over 50%;
Is there a star who really deserves to have their hard work celebrated? The Petplan & ADCH Animal Charity Awards 2020 is an opportunity for you to recognise animal charities, as well as individual team members and volunteers, for the hard work they put in to help give so many animals a brighter future. Remember nominations are anonymous and each nominee will receive a personalised certificate to proudly display.
