On Saturday the 22nd August the GSPCA will be collecting around Guernsey for our annual Flag Day.
We have filled many of the locations, but we are appealing for volunteers to help with collecting.
Sarah Ozanne Organisor of this years Flag Day said "Last year we helped raise over £3000 during our Flag Day."
"Our main flag day is on Saturday 22nd August and if you can help I would love to hear from you."
"Thank you to those that helped collect and donated the other week when we were at Waitrose and we are hoping to collect at Marks and Spencers in October."
Giant Animal Mascot It's a Knock Out for the GSPCA
Once again we will be holding a Giant Animal Mascot Race but this year there are a few twists.
This is open to mascots and individuals prepared to dress as an animal.
We are asking businesses, pubs, individuals or anyone as a team of 4 or an individual.
Don't worry about what to wear we will provide the Giant Animal Mascot suit and have over 70 available.
Yesterday the GSPCA team were joined by 5 volunteers from Northern Trust who gave up a day in the office to help the team paint, decorate and other work at the Animal Shelter in St Andrews.
Once again on Sunday at the GSPCA we joined the Taste Guernsey Seafront Sunday with a stall to raise funds for the animals in Guernsey.
It was the third Taste Guernsey Seafront Sunday and the fifth of 2015.
We set up at 8am just outside Marks and Spencers and before the day could even start the road was full of tourists off the cruise liners and locals enjoying the lovely weather and the many stalls and entertainment.
We had many visitors playing the games on offer and many purchasing local Guernsey goods from fudge to GSPCA hoodies and hats.
This Summer we are launching an additional give away to new Angel Pen Pal sponsors that wish to join up and give £5 or more a month to help the hundreds of animals at the GSPCA.
During August if you sign up and donate through the Angel Pen Pal sponsorship scheme from £5 a month or more you will receive a GSPCA t-shirt or polo in addition to all of the other benefits.
For those that decide to donate £15 a month or more you will receive a free GSPCA hoodie or sweatshirt.
On the 26th June a very young, starving kestrel was found on a road in St Peters.
With no mother in site and traffic back and forth the bird was rescued and brought to the GSPCA in St Andrews.
He was placed in an intensive care unit and still had much of his down and not fully feathered due to his age.
Day and night he was hand fed by the team at the Shelter until he was fit enough to place in one of our rehabilitation aviaries.
Over the last few weeks he has built his strength and learnt to fly and forage for food.
At the GSPCA during the term holidays we run guided tours, but on Thursday we ran an exclusive surprise experience planned by a very loving husband.
A number of weeks ago, in secret Art Allen had been in touch with the GSPCA to arrange a surprise for his wife who was celebrating a milestone birthday and taking retirement from full time work.
Mid morning on Thursday Art Allen arrived at the GSPCA with his wife Jean who had no idea why she had come to the Animal Shelter in St Andrews.
If you're out and about why not pop by the Taste of Guernsey Seafront Sunday tomorrow.
We will be setting up from 8am for a 10am start and it is their third Seafront Sunday of 2015 and the fifth of the year.
Once again we will be just outside Marks and Spencer with all of our fun games and tombolas.
The GSPCA have a stall at every Seafront Sunday this year and don't forget our BIG DAY on September 13th.
