Every Autumn the shores of the Bailiwick see grey seal pups being born, and the GSPCA are issuing advice today because of the inclement weather we have seen recently.
The earliest seal we have rescued in recent years was Jethou Bumblebee who was found during the last week of November back in 2012.
During the last few winters the GSPCA have rescued four Grey Seal Pups in total. Two in 2013/14 Eden and Trinity and the previous winter Jethou Bumblebee and Hanois.
With cold weather on the way the GSPCA want pet owners to consider all the animals of Guernsey.
During a cold snap the GSPCA are on full alert, ready to deal with a variety of animals affected by the low temperatures.
Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager said "With the coming cold snap and possible snow on its way, at the GSPCA we want to ensure pets and other animals kept and live outside are safe and have all they need."

Yesterday the GSPCA were called out to a dog that had been left in a car on what was another very hot day.
The dog as reported by Guernsey Police was recovered and taken to the GSPCA.
Lorna Prince the Animal Welfare Manager and Annabelle Janes Animal Care Assistant and Collection Officer attended the scene and worked alongside the Guernsey Police.
The dog which is now fine and back with the owner highlights the importance of not leaving any pet at risk in the warm and sunny weather.
With another sunny week ahead of us the GSPCA want to ensure all pet owners take care of their animals.
The GSPCA during hot weather always receive reports from concerned members of the public that have seen dogs locked in cars and other animals in glass houses.
With the warm weather and direct sunlight, dogs in cars are potentially in a situation where you could kill your pet if it is left, regardless of the situation.
