This evening three stray budgies were found near Saumarez Park which were kindly transported to the GSPCA by Leo Thomas founder of Sarnia Guinea Pig Rescue.

The two male and one female birds were found together and both males are in fairly good condition, with the female bird with a few small injuries but otherwise fine.

The birds have been named Major, Manuel and Sybil.

On the 11th May a very different delivery was made by the post man.

'Skimmer' as staff and volunteers have named the male, adult  tortoise was found on La Garenne.

As with many tortoise Skimmer is quite distinctive.

Each year we help around 30 stray tortoise which are handed into the GSPCA and we find the owners for nearly every one.
