Last week during half term we ran a series of guided tours that proved so popular additional tours had to be added.
Every tour was a sell out and on Thursday and Friday due to demand we doubled up with over 40 attending each day.
The groups got to see Slovakian puppies to kittens, chicks to hoglets, tortoise to bunnies and much more.
During the school breaks we run a series of guided tours at the GSPCA and we have now planned for 2016 with some special tours for the children.
It is your opportunity to visit behind the scenes at our Animal Shelter in St Andrews and see the work being carried out for the new build.
We are arranging the guided tours on a series of dates at 2pm.
We ask for a minimum donation of £5 per person and £3 per child, or £15 for a family of four. In 2016 we have some themed tours which are £15 per child.
The tours take around 80 minutes and you get to see in many of the departments and a variety of species. The special tours are a little longer.
Tours are a maximum of 15 people per tour, so please book early. The special tours are a maximum of 20.
Some of the animals you will have the chance to see will be cats, rabbits, birds, hedgehogs, dogs looking for homes and some of the other wildlife.
