Oscar the cat has kidney problems and needs your support

Submitted by GSPCA on 17:19, 8th Mar, 2013 | 0

Every day we see sick and injured animals here at the GSPCA Animal Shelter in Guernsey.

Oscar a male black and white cat although looks quite healthy has kidney problems and the GSPCA and our vets are trying to determine what is the exact problem.

After a series of tests he currently is having a 3 week course of antibiotics to hopefully cure what we are hoping will be just an infection.

Oscar is just one of the many un-neutered, stray cats we have had in at the Shelter this year and we are urging owners to ensure their cats are spayed with Spring upon us.

Friendly stray rabbit found in St Martins last night

Submitted by GSPCA on 09:25, 5th Mar, 2013 | 0

Last night the GSPCA was called out to collect a stray rabbit.

Found in St Martins, the very friendly black with a little white, female adult lop eared rabbit was rescued after being found roaming the area.

Safe and sound at the GSPCA we are appealing for anyone that might have lost their hoppy little friend.

Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager said 'She appears very friendly and very healthy so it is likely she has escaped out of someones garden as there will be many out in this lovely weather.'

'We get many stray rabbits in and care for over 100 every year.'

Cinders is doing well after her operation yesterday

Submitted by GSPCA on 18:05, 28th Feb, 2013 | 0

You may have heard about or seen Cinders the cat on the internet or local media.

She came in to the Shelter for rehoming but unfortunately had a number of issues with her health, teeth and gums.

Cinders had an initial opertation and has been on treatment for two months but unfortunately yesterday the brave decision had to be made to remove all but her 4 canines leaving her with a very gummy mouth.

Although never an easy decision, despite a series of treatments, it was decided to remove many of Cinders teeth as it was in her best interest.

Submitted by GSPCA on 10:06, 27th Feb, 2013 | 0

The GSPCA would like to thank everyone that has been supporting our Tuesday bric-a-brac and coffee mornings as well as our open days.

So we can continue doing these at the Shelter and to help with other events we are appealing for additional bric-a-brac, games, books, clothes and other charity shop items to help raise funds to help rescue and care for animals in Guernsey.

Many of us are having a Spring clean so when you do yours please think of the Animal Shelter and how your unwanted items can make a difference to animals lives.

Submitted by GSPCA on 10:45, 26th Feb, 2013 | 0

Monday 25th March to the 31st March 2013 is the second GSPCA Cupcake Week here in Guernsey.

Can you make/bake & sell cupcakes to raise money for the GSPCA?  By doing so you would be helping many injured and abandoned animals. 

Why not get baking, organise a cupcake sale or coffee morning, or if you're a business maybe sell some on the day and make a percentage to go the GSPCA.

The GSPCA has recently received a large number of calls from concerned members of public about horses and other animals in wet and muddy fields.
