What clever Guernsey cows - Stray cows hand themselves into the GSPCA

Submitted by Steve on 21:52, 15th Apr, 2024 | 0

Every day the GSPCA help lost and stray animals.

With the larger farm animals we are called out to help everything from escaped horses to sheep in the road, cows in gardens to pigs out and about and many more.

Mostly escaped farm or large animals lose are from fences coming down especially in windy weather or gates being left open.

This weekend though the GSPCA had a herd of cows hand themselves into the GSPCA.

Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager said “We are very blessed to have very clever animals here in Guernsey.”

Submitted by Steve on 14:21, 11th Apr, 2024 | 0

National Pet Day is a chance for those of us who own pets to show them how much we love them.

We all can think of the traditional things: a new toy, some tasty treats, or a long walk in the park, maybe a game of fetch, assuming you have a dog!

But, think outside the box and come up with some ideas to celebrate your relationship with your pet. Once you have indulged your own animals with their favourite treats, why not consider donating to the many animals at the GSPCA?
