Submitted by Steve on 14:20, 17th Oct, 2015 | 0

Earlier today Amy and her 9 friends came up to the GSPCA for a Birthday guided tour.

Amy who has just turned 11 years of age asked her mum earlier in the year if she could have a tour at the GSPCA with her friends as part of her birthday.

At the Shelter we kindly obliged and for a donation of £50 Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager took the group around earlier today.

From seeing Wee Billy a young hedgehog to meeting the tortoise, stroking Monkey a diabetic cat to smelling the ferrets the girls all had a lovely day.

6 weeks on from the 25 Slovakian puppies being detained at the GSPCA, many are wondering the outcome for the 18 pups that after the court case remained the possessions of the individuals involved in moving them from Slovakia to the UK.
