Have you thought of the hundreds of animals in our care this Christmas and the incredibly difficult year we have all faced and bringing some joy and helping animals at the GSPCA?
Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager said “After the hardest year we have ever faced in living memory at the GSPCA for so many reasons maybe you can help bring some Christmas cheer to the animals in our care.”
11 year old Astrid Meadow has released her song ‘You’re A Ray of Sunshine’ online to raise funds for the GSPCA and Guernsey Animal Aid.
Astrid absolutely loves animals and the proceeds raised from those downloading her song will be donated to help animals in Guernsey.
Here are the three platforms where you can download this fantastic song.
Many think that Guernsey hedgehogs like their cousins in the UK hibernate but sadly this is a rare occurrence for the majority of our spikey friends as they require a temperature of 5c or below for their body clock to switch to this Winter behaviour.
With the mild climate we have in the Channel Islands it is rare for a day to go by that we don’t rescue of help a hedgehog 365 days a year.
Today has been a wonderful day for Olivia the loggerhead turtle as two amazing donations help with her care while we await the Cites paperwork to enable her to travel and fund raise so we can transport her.
In this mornings post a very kind member of public has purchased an additional heater from our Amazon Wish List and also today Le Friquet Garden Centre have donated a fantastic large pond filter.
Now that Olivia is eating as much as she can the new filter and heater will add to the already wonderful donations of other equipment that enable us to care for her.
Today the GSPCA team have been very busy preparing and clearing areas for work to be carried out tomorrow.
We are hugely grateful to GFF Flooring who are donating and fitting flooring to our Hospital area and thanks to a grant from the Co-op Helping Hands they are also fitting a new floor in the ferret room both of which are desperately needed due to the aged floors they currently have.
With the lovely weather many of the animals have gone into outside cages and aviaries and others have gone into other sections of the GSPCA.
24 hours a day, 7 days a week staff and volunteers work around the clock at the GSPCA to ensure the animals are cared for and those in need can be rescued around Guernsey.
At present with the 25 Slovakian puppies and many other animals at the GSPCA we are continually appealing for animal feed and cleaning products.
One of the wonderful additions that has benefited many animals at the Shelter has been our Wish List which we have both on our website and a link to an Amazon Wish List.

Since launching our Amazon Wish List in October 2012 nearly every week we have had wonderful donations from honey for the hedgehogs to heat lamps to keep those ill nice and warm.
Yesterday GSPCA Manager Steve Byrne was asked to pop along to Situations Recruitment to meet Directors Jenny Mitchell and Melissa Campbell.
Not knowing the reason why Steve made his way in the wind and rain to their office near Market Square.
