You may have just seen the story on Spud a 15 year old cat now happy in his forever home. We recently had another update from a cat called Bandit.
Anna Paint Senior Animal care Assistant said “Bandit was an 11year old cat that when he arrived needed a bit of dental work.”
“Older cats very often need very special homes which are few and far to find but after 6 months of care we found this lovely cat just the right home.”

It took over 7 months for us to find this loving wonderful cat his forever home which we are delighted to say he is doing very well in.
Anna Paint Senior Animal care Assistant said “Spud was with us for 7 months before he went to his forever home and we are delighted to say he is doing very well and we are getting lots of updates as his new Dad is one of our wonderful volunteers.”

This Spring a lovely cat called Bertie came into our care.
The 7 year old cat was found as a stray with a number of health problems including his eyes not being in good health.
Anna Paint Senior Animal Care Assistant tells us of Berties story “Bertie came in to us as a stray in May and straight away we realised that he had a problem with his eye sight and he was in a poor condition, Bertie was sent straight to the vets to get checked over as blindness in cats can be caused by a number of issues.”

On Saturday 25th May a white and black cat was hit by a car and rushed to the vets.
Amballes as the cat has been named was rescued by the GSPCA Warden on Les Amballes in St Peter Port and sadly has no chip or owner come forward.
The cat has been at the vets since Saturday and requires a huge amount of surgery to survive.
You can donate to her much needed operation by visiting –

At the GSPCA the team love to hear how the animals are doing that have been adopted and we wanted to share this wonderful letter from Benny a cat that was recently rehomed -
‘Dear Steve and Anna
As promised I am writing to let you know how I am getting on in my new home.
I've been here a week now and settling in very well.
I was very timid on the first day and took a few hours to even venture very far from my cat box.

The GSPCA have been asked to help spread the word to help two cats find a very special home.
Here are the details –
Alfie (black) and Indie (grey) are two 7 year old, indoor cats looking for a new home.
Sadly, due to health issues the owner is moving to Perth, Australia and she cannot take them with her as they would not manage the trip and months in quarantine.

146 years ago when the GSPCA was first founded road traffic incidents were something that know one would have understood and comprehended but in the fast world we now live sadly here in Guernsey they are all too common place.
In fact just last night another fatality occurred of a young cat which the GSPCA rushed too but sadly it was too late and nothing could be done.
Over recent years the GSPCA have seen anywhere between 150 and 300 cats killed on the roads of Guernsey every year and sadly far many death is very swift often through no fault of the driver.

Her new owners said “We promised to send an update on Sparkle, who we adopted just over two weeks ago.”
“We are pleased to say that she has settled in really well and is purring a lot.”
