GSPCA Animal Advent Calendar Day 8 - Please help cats like Tomsie Hope and Bruce who arrived as strays needing operations

Submitted by Steve on 12:44, 8th Dec, 2017 | 0

In the last few weeks the GSPCA have helped two stray cats with major health issues.

Bruce a grey and white cat arrived at the GSPCA with a ruptured diaphragm and required a massive operation to help save his life costing just over £1000.  Bruce is recovering well in the cattery at the GSPCA but if he hadn’t been seen by the vets he wouldn’t be alive today.

Tomsie as she was called but nicknamed Hope by a few of the staff is a black cat that was rescued from St Peter Port and we have sadly been unable to find an owner.

Stray black very timid adult cat caught in St Peter Port with no chip now at the GSPCA

Submitted by Steve on 13:26, 1st Dec, 2017 | 0

On Wednesday evening just after 1130pm a black cat was caught in a cat trap in a property car park in St Peter Port.

The cat which had been seen many times in the area over a 2 month period appeared thin and extremely nervous and appeared to be living in the car park which raised concerns over whether it had an owner.

The GSPCA after some advice lent a trap to catch the cat and with 24 hours the cat was caught and brought up to the Shelter where the black feline has been named 'Tomsie'.
