The GSPCA really could do so much without its amazing team of volunteers and supporters.
From the Committee to those that walk dogs, fund raisers to those that help with admin, gardeners to those helping with IT, the companies who send their staff to help to so many others the list goes on and on.
With the GSPCA providing 24/7 we couldn’t do so much without our amazing team.
In recent years with all the challenges our volunteers have really been on the frontline and especially our GSPCA Animal Ambulance Wardens and we cannot thank them enough.
With over 400 animals in our care and over 3000 through our doors each year there are many things we use and need 24/7 365 days a year and many Wish List ideas for the animals in our care on our Amazon Wish List.
There are many ways to support our work and every penny makes a huge difference during these difficult times. There are a huge range of ways in which you can support our work and help us care for the animals at the GSPCA.
Currently at the GSPCA we are appealing for dog teats as we are running very low.
Last week the GSPCA did not have 1 but 2 calls to rescue snakes that managed to travel the huge distance to Guernsey.
On the 18th May GSPCA team member Neil Hughes was called out to a local Garden Centre kitchen where a snake had stowed away with cabbages from Spain.
Tiny Tim as the very small snake has been called is a Viperine Snake which does have venom for their prey but they do not bite as a form of defence and even if it did would be harmless to humans.
The GSPCA are warning dog walkers taking their four legged friends to local commons of a current concern.
There appears to be large numbers of what we believe are thorny seeds from what is believed is the Erodium cicutarium also know as Redstem Storks Bill which get caught in your dogs feet and fur along many of the commons and grassy areas especially L’Ancresse, Port Soif and Chouet,
We celebrate our 150 year history this year and we couldn’t do so much without our incredible team of staff, volunteers and supporters.
Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager said “We have never been so busy as we have been in current years and with plans of new builds to meeting every day demands we are currently recruiting for additional team members at the GSPCA from staff to volunteers.”
“1st June sees the start of Volunteers Week and why not join us before it takes place at our next Induction Evening on the 31st May.”
