Although we haven’t had the hottest of Summers the GSPCA are expecting to receive calls and reports from the public from dogs locked in cars, dogs being walked on hot pavements, animals in direct sunlight, wildlife in need and we want to remind all pet owners of the real dangers to their pets and how you can help wildlife.
With the extreme warm weather and direct sunlight, dogs and other animals whether in cars or their pens are potentially in a situation where you could kill your pet if it is left, regardless of the situation.
With over 150 years of helping animals in Guernsey and more animals being helped each year than ever before the GSPCA are looking to add new team members to help ensure our 24/7 work.
The GSPCA has had to grow in recent years to meet the demands on our services and ensure the care and rescue of animals in need.
Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager said “We are very excited to announce some exciting new opportunities at the GSPCA, but there are only weeks left to apply.”
Today Thursday 24th August is the second day of the North Show and the GSPCA are here with a stall and have been attending since 2012.
Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager said "As mentioned yesterday this summer is extraordinarily busy for us at the GSPCA, especially with celebrating our 150 years and our BIG BUILD Appeal."
“Even last night we didn’t stop with stray dogs, baby birds, injured hedgehogs, injured bat and so many other challenges.”
Every year we hear of firework related incidents involving animals and children. While fireworks may be exciting and pretty to look at and its fun to celebrate many celebrations with a bang, we must put our safety, the safety of our pets and the local wildlife first.
Tonight as part of the North Show at approximately 2150hrs (950pm) at Saumarez Park in Castel there is a firework display planned so please ensure your animals are safe and prepare for the unusual sounds and sights they might be subjected too.
With days left to view the Guernsey Puffin Parade at their 60 locations the GSPCA and Autism Guernsey are preparing to collect the wonderful painted puffins to prepare them for the BIG Auction.
From next Tuesday the team will be collecting all 60 Puffins from around Guernsey ahead of the auction.
If you can help with their collection please do email [email protected]
The auction takes place at St Pierre Park Hotel on Tuesday 12th September at 630pm tickets are now on sale.
This year the GSPCA are celebrating 150 years helping animals and our community in Guernsey.
As part of the celebrations we have on sale some memorabilia and much of the selection is on our stall at the North Show, the GSPCA Animal Shelter and some at our Charity Shop in Smith Street.
Here is a list of some of the items on sale -
