Appeal - Jethou Bumblebee has oFISHally got a taste for herring and mackerel - & buy your own seal at our Pop Up Shop

Submitted by GSPCA on 15:15, 19th Dec, 2012 | 0

Jethou Bumblebee has been at the Shelter for just over 4 weeks and has really grown an appetite.

With 15 to 20 fish being swallowed a day he has put on an additional 10kg which is fantastic news as he was only 17kg on entry.

Staff at the Shelter have decided now to do the rehabilitation work at the GSPCA and we are appealing for donations of fish, especially herring and mackerel.

Geoff George ACO and the main carer for Jethou Bumblebee said 'I am so pleased with his progress.'
