Join the GSPCA this Friday at the Wayside Cheer Hotel with 2Xtreme to celebrate the safe capture of Slygo the stray terrier

Submitted by GSPCA on 11:38, 23rd Apr, 2013 | 0

After months of wandering the south cliffs of Guernsey Slygo the stray terrier was safely caught in the early hours of this morning.

The GSPCA has been working with the authorities and other charities to capture the nervous little dog that has been stray since February this year.

We must start by thanking all of the press and public in their support as without the combined help of everyone involved we wouldn't have been able to catch him.

Lamar is the longest stay cat in need of a home at the GSPCA

Submitted by GSPCA on 15:01, 15th Apr, 2013 | 0

We are pleased to report that today Felix our longest stay cat has gone to her new home.

This makes Lamar the longest stay cat as he came in last March.

Lamar is an independent lad and likes his own space.  At only two years old he needs a home where he can do his own thing as he's not keen on cuddles.

Anna Paint Senior Animal Care Assistant said 'I'm over joyed that we have found Felix a new home but Lamar is now our longest stay cat in need.'

'He is beautiful but does need a home where he can do his own thing.'
