This Valentines day the GSCA celebrates 146 years since being founded, and could you help towards the 500 animals in our care?

It costs nearly £2,000 a day to care for all of the animals at the Shelter and provide the 24/7 service the GSPCA provides 365 days a year.

From the 5 seal pups to Harley and Ellie (two dogs that needed cancer lump removal operations) there are many animals that need your support.

Caring for 500+ animals means we always need equipment, feed, medications and so much more to run the Shelter, rescue animals and care for them.
