Vote for our Luna the only rabbit in Agria's Rescue a Rescue 2024 for a chance for the GSPCA to win £1000 and please share www.agriapet.co.uk/rescue-a-rescue/

Have you seen the recent competition being run for rescues by Agria?

From 100’s of animal charities across the British Isles the GSPCA bunny Luna who is our longest stay rabbit in need of a home is 1 of the 12 finalists and the only rabbit to be shortlisted in the final voting options with a chance to win the GSPCA £1000 so please vote now.

Agria have posted on their website ‘Vote for your favourite rescue and help rehoming organisations

Life for rehoming organisations continues to be incredibly tough. For the past few years, there’s been no respite in the volume of animals whose lives have been turned upside down as they find that, for whatever reason, they’re in need of a new place to call home.

We’re looking for twelve special animals who are struggling to find their forever home more than most. We’ll be following their journey between now and Christmas, sharing their stories, follow them through the year to help them give them an extra chance to be noticed by their forever person. Plus, we’ll donate £1,000 to the rehoming organisation looking after them.’

Ollie Bourgaize GSPCA team member who works closely caring for the bunnies in our care said “Our special bunny Luna has been nominated in the Agria Pet Insurance #RescueARescue campaign!”

“Voting for Luna to be in the final 12 gives us the chance to win £1000 for the shelter!”

“Luna is a 6 year old rabbit who has been at the shelter for nearly 2 years now!”

“She came in after she unfortunately lost her owner, and despite having some interest, she hasn't found her forever home yet.”

“She's full of personality, and does enjoy flopping over to relax, but when she's out of her pen she's full of energy and likes to do little old lady binkies!”

“We're so glad she has been chosen as a nominee, as we would love to finally find her a perfect forever home!”

“Please vote for our lovely Luna and the GSPCA by clicking on the following link and choosing Luna on the dropdown selection!”

https://www.agriapet.co.uk/rescue-a-rescue/

“Please sure to share this post with family and friends to give us and Luna the best chance to be in the final 12!”

Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager said “What wonderful news to hear the Luna the bunny in our care is a finalist in the Agria Rescue a Rescue and the GSPCA are in with a chance to win £1000.”

“Please do vote for her and the GSPCA as she is the only rabbit in the 12 finalists and representing the Channel Islands from so many animals from so many charities across the British Isles.”

“Agria have supported the GSPCA in many ways over the years from Olivia the loggerhead turtle to sponsoring an International Special Recognition Animal Welfare Award we won at the Ceva Animal Welfare Awards in 2017.”

“We are aware that as of this year Agria has partnered with Clegg Gifford in the Channel Islands and as pet insurance is so important in these challenging times of rising costs and expensive vet bills adds to the many options out there to choose from.”

“We do not recommend any single pet insurance but we do encourage when looking at the options you ensure it is the best policy for you and your pet and it is always worth asking if they support a local animal welfare organisation as many can provide a code to donate but to the animal welfare charity in your area.”

Agria have also said on their website ‘Agria Pet Insurance has partnered with Clegg Gifford Channel Islands

Agria has been working hard in recent months to improve its offering to customers based in the Bailiwick of Guernsey, and following a thorough selection process, has recently partnered with Clegg Gifford Channel Islands, a local insurance broker with over 25 years of experience providing insurance to Guernsey residents.

We do not doubt that partnering with such an experienced local insurance broker will result in an enhanced and more dedicated service for our Guernsey-based customers.

Clegg Gifford Channel Islands will administer your pet insurance policy. Please be assured that this does not affect your insurance coverage for your pet. Your vet fee claims will also continue to be handled by the experienced Agria Claims Team in Aylesbury.

Contact Clegg Gifford 01481 728987.’

To see more about Agria and Clegg Gifford please visit https://www.agriapet.co.uk/clegg-gifford-channel-islands-limited/

PLEASE NOTE - The GSPCA does not promote any specific Pet Insurance but whenever choosing a policy please do ask if there is any way they support a local animal rescue and ensure you check the policy is the best for you and your animal(s)

Steve continues “We now rehome more rabbits than we do dogs and cats each year and we have so many in need of a home.”

“Sadly we also see more cruelty and poor care of bunnies than other species and have had cases of more than 60 come into our care from one home.”

“If you are interested in adopting a bunny or any species from the GSPCA, to register your interest and complete an online form please go to https://service.sheltermanager.com/asmservice?account=gspca&method=online_form_html&formid=23 .”
