Carey Olsen staff rescue Carey the stray canary – is your canary missing?

This afternoon the GSPCA were called to the offices of Carey Olsen for a stray budgie.

When we arrived the budgie was in fact a canary, but the kind staff had managed to safely catch the lost bird and call the team at the GSPCA.

To see a VT of Carey the canary please check out https://www.youtube.com/user/TheGuernseySPCA

Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager said “Around lunch time today we had an emergency call at the GSPCA to what was reported as a stray budgie.”

“GSPCA Rescue Officer Geoff George attended and indeed it was a stray bird, but instead of a budgie it was a canary.”

 “We are currently trying to find the owner of the peachy pinkish coloured canary which is now safely at the GSPCA.”

“The team have named the bird Carey the canary and we are hoping an owner will come forward.”

"A huge thanks to the team at Carey Olsen who kindly rescued the lost bird."

“If anyone has any information please contact the GSPCA on 257261 or email [email protected] .”

“We do have a number of birds looking for homes including two lovebirds, cockatiels and lots of cockerels looking for a good homes.”
