Just over a week ago a mother chicken and her chick were rescued in Torteval.
The mother now named Catherine was extremely weak and thin when she was found and wouldn't have survived if the kind member of public hadn't rescued her and her daughter who is now called Charlotte in the cold weather we have been experiencing.
Both birds are doing very well and putting on weight every day.

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.

Over the last few days Jessie has been growing in confidence in and around our new trap although quite wary.
The plan soon will be to close off a number of the entry points so that a GSPCA team can camp out to trap her inside.
