Although in Guernsey we seem to be well into Autumn young animals are still being found.

Submitted by Steve on 11:10, 22nd Aug, 2014 | 0

Yesterday the GSPCA rescued a very poorly ginger cat.

The stray ginger very thin entire male was found with no microchip or collar in St Peter Port.

We have now named the young adult male cat Elmo but due to his ill health he has been rushed to the vets where they are keeping in their care on a drip.

Elmo has been in the La Petite Fontaine area since Sunday the 17th August.

Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager said "I have just spoken to our vets and Elmo is not very well at all and will need to be kept in at the vets over the weekend on a drip."

Appeal to help 3 very special cats at the GSPCA with their operations - Tortoga, Morgan & Popeye need your help

Submitted by Steve on 17:12, 12th Aug, 2014 | 0

At the GSPCA we currently have 3 cats in need of support.

You may have heard the story of Popeye the cat.  Sadly Popeye has a very poorly eye that requires additional investigations and an operation.  He came in with a cat called Grayson after their owner sadly passed away.  We would love to rehome them together, but before we can we need to get Popeye fit and well.

Drum roll...... Mr Chips the diabetic cat finds his forever home

Submitted by Steve on 15:47, 14th Jul, 2014 | 0

Staff and volunteers at the GSPCA today have both been over joyed and also had a few tears as we waved Mr Chips the very famous cat at the Shelter off to his new home.

Mr Chips who has been at the Shelter since April last year has experienced many adventures whilst at the Shelter.

On entry he was very unstable with his diabetes which took many months to find the correct dosage of insulin and medicated diet.

Mr Chips has also experienced many school trips and tours meeting hundreds of children and adults who all fell in love with the stunning cat that he is.

Phoenix the kitten has a lucky escape - PLEASE ENSURE YOU CHECK HEDGEROWS & OVERGROWN AREAS BEFORE STRIMMING OR CUTTING

Submitted by Steve on 10:33, 17th Jun, 2014 | 0

With the sunny weather and gardens blooming the GSPCA have had a busy few weeks with injured wildlife found in areas that have been strimmed or cut.

The main casualty have been hedgehogs and even mothers with young that have been found whilst an area has been cleared or cut.

Over recent years we have seen a decrease in feral cat colonies thanks to the work of the GSPCA and that of Guernsey Animal Aid Cats, but it only takes one unnetuered female cat and one male to result in a litter of kittens.

Trio & Trouble 2 cats need your help with their operations at the GSPCA in Guernsey

Submitted by Steve on 13:42, 20th Mar, 2014 | 0

The GSPCA rehomes hundreds of cats every year and help thousands more.

Sadly many of the strays and those no longer being able to be cared for by their owners come in with health problems.

Currently we have two stunning cats in need of operations.

Trio who has gone through a number of medical treatments and a very difficult start to her 2 years of life has half a back right leg which needs operating on further.

She is one of the teams favourites but before we can rehome her we have to ensure she ready and healthy.

Dillon the cats memory lives on at the GSPCA & Guernsey Animal Aid Cats

Submitted by Steve on 16:31, 7th Mar, 2014 | 0

The death of Dillon the cat hit many islanders very hard as he was a friend to many that frequent St Peter Port.

He spent much of his time Paint and Sons' Jewelers and the staff there have received many cards and donations in loving memory of the wonderful 5 year old feline.

It is believed during the awful recent weather and high tides that Dillon may have been taken by the waves as they crashed over the walls along the front of St Peter Port.
