On Friday we were invited along to Amherst School Fete.

We arrived just after 4pm ready for the 6pm opening and had a lovely night raising funds on our stall to help animals in Guernsey.

We had many winners to the many games we took along and also lots of interest in our resident tortoise.

Over £400 was raised and a huge thank you to all that supported and the school and PTA for letting us take part.

Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager said "We had a lovely evening at the Amherst School Fete on Friday and raised over £400 which is fantastic."

Jessie has the all clear from the vets and is happy to be home at long last

Submitted by Steve on 11:01, 1st Jul, 2015 | 0

After a 9 week operation to catch Jessie she was finally caught yesterday as the sun rose in Port Soif.

The poor beagle had been rescued in April from a UK rehoming centre and managed to escape as she had pulled a flexi lead out of the owners hands which spooked her when it hit the floor and she took off.

Since late April the GSPCA have been working with the owners to rescue Jessie and the team at the Animal Shelter were overjoyed yesterday when after a huge operation they were able to catch her thanks to a massive effort and a kind member of public helping.
