Only a week since the GSPCA Amazon Wish List was launched and the Shelter staff and volunteers have been in awe of all of the gifts purchased for the animals and their care.
A HUGE thank you must go to Corporate Risk Solutions, staff from Menzies Aviation, staff from the Heritage Group and also Sandra and Ken James.
These individuals have helped the Shelter purchase additional scales which are vital for weighing animals on entry and during their stay as well as many animal toys and feed for the hundreds in the GSPCA care.

The GSPCA are always looking to find new and replacing old equipment to help with the many animals at the Shelter. We currently need 2 additional sets of weighing scales. One set is needed for the Cattery and the other is for the Wildlife and Small Animal Unit. It is extremely important that all animals are weighed on entry and during their stay to monitor their condition and health. If you would like to purchase a set of these scales you can do so via our Amazon Wishlist which can be seen by

The GSPCA would like to announce that we have a new shower for the dogs at the Shelter.
Thanks to a small contribution from the Pedigree Adoption Drive earlier this year and local businesses supporting the Shelter with the supplies, staff at the GSPCA have constructed a lovely new shower where both the dogs in for boarding and those looking for new homes can be pampered and washed.

The GSPCA has been helping animals in Guernsey for over 139 years and in that time has helped thousands every year.
The housing for the cats is nearly 40 years old and with the demands on the Shelter every day the cattery is full to bursting in aged accommodation.

The GSPCA is asking for your help for this very friendly poorly cat.
Roger came into the Shelter as a very elderly sick stray earlier this month. When he arrived he had multiple health problems and needed to be rushed to the vets where he was placed on a drip and under intensive care for some time.
The vets are now recommending he has a number of tests and an operation before the Animal Shelter can find him a good home.

Today crew from the Bumblebee Boat Cruises welcomed the GSPCA Manager with a Giant Bumble Bee on board their boat.
This summer the Bumblebee Boat Cruises spent two days at the North Show raising funds for the GSPCA through a raffle they did for free trips on board that they are soon to draw.

In only 3 days on Saturday 1st September a very brave Lorna Prince who is the GSPCA Welfare Manager has decided to do something to help the many animals at the Shelter. Lorna is not keen on heights at all and even less keen of falling but she has signed up to jump out of a plane at 10,000 feet over Guernsey in a tandem Skydive.
Lorna is doing this to raise funds for the Shelter and she needs your support.
To sponsor Lorna please click here and pop reference 'Lorna skydive' so we can include it to her running total

Earlier this year a very kind lady made a fantastic donation that has enabled us to improve the many rabbits lives whilst they are at the GSPCA Animal Shelter.
In the last year the Animal Shelter has had to help rehome dozens of rabbits with the Christmas period proving to be a time where the shelter has had more rabbits in our care than anyone could ever recall.
Thankfully many of these rabbits are now in loving caring homes but for those that are at the Shelter we are always looking to help improve their stay.
