At the GSPCA we are often called regarding abandoned animals.
Last week a concerned member of public spotted a trio of Grey Silkies wandering around the Vale Castle area.
The birds were quite nervous and wasn't able to catch them so called in the GSPCA to assist.
Geoff George the GSPCA Animal Collection Officer attended the seen a number of times last week before he finally managed to catch them.
Safe and sound now at the Shelter they are doing well and there is a home already lined up for them.
On Sunday the 14th July 2013 at the Bon Port Hotel we would like to invite you to Labradog Day, a day to celebrate Labradors in Guernsey.
Organised by Cherry Dewey we are asking labrador owners from around the Bailiwick to come along with their Labradors for a fun filled afternoon.
We are also trying to get as many Labradors from around the island so we can get a phot of them all together.
The day includes -
3pm a picture of all the Labradors together
Only 2 days to go and Natalie Randall one of the Shelter volunteers has stepped up to join GSPCA Manager Steve Byrne, Animal Collection Officer Geoff George and Animal Care Assistant Tony Gallie who are all doing the whole 38.5 miles around the Island to help raise funds for the annual event and the 2013 chosen charities.
The walk has now become one of Guernsey's key fund raising events for local charities and attracts several hundred participants every year determined to complete the nearly forty mile route.
If we didn't have volunteers at the GSPCA we couldn't exist, as every day kind individuals give up their own time to help the Animal Shelter and the work that goes on around the clock.
In a very basic calculation volunteers gave up well in excess of 13'000 hours during 2012 which is the same as 300 people working one 40 hour week.
From dog walkers to fund raisers, night wardens to receptionists, gardening to mucking out the GSPCA are grateful to each and every person that gives up their time to help the many animals in our care.
The GSPCA would like to wish one and all a very Happy New Year for 2013 and we hope everyone has had a nice Christmas.
Please remember your pets and animals tonight on this eventful evening when many celebrate until the early hours of the morning bringing in the New Year.

Tomorrow night is the second of the Late Night Shopping in St Peter Port.
The GSPCA once again will be on the Pollet with some animal friends so please pop along to see our stall.
This Thursday we have a number of new items on sale which are ideal presents from only £1. But please remember all of these items are on sale at the GSPCA Animal Shelter and will also be available at our Pop Up Charity Shop at OSA Recruitment in Smith from next week.
GSPCA volunteers once again will be in town for the Late Night Shopping this evening and every Thursday with the run up to Christmas.
This year the GSPCA will be on the Pollet outside Joules with a selection of pet and GSPCA goods.
There will also be the chance to see one or two of our Giant Animal Mascots so please pop along and support us.
Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager said 'No matter what the weather we will be there as we were last year handing out free lolly pops and getting into the festive spirit.'
