A huge thanks as a wonderful 2023 as the Guernsey Chamber of Commerce chosen charity in our 150th year, could the GSPCA be yours

Submitted by Steve on 23:25, 12th Dec, 2023 | 0

The GSPCA have had many challenges in 2023 such as the recent storms, but we have also had some amazing support.

During 2023 we have been the chosen charity for the Chamber of Commerce which has come with amazing benefits.

All year they have displayed banners at their office in the Market Building and hosted goods for sale.

We have had the opportunity to talk at events and even fund raise at last months gala dinner and we are hugely grateful for all of their support.

Can you help a cat needing a Rural or Farm type home from the GSPCA

Submitted by Steve on 19:22, 8th Dec, 2023 | 0

There are many reasons cats come into the GSPCA.

Not all have loving caring starts to their lives and at the GSPCA we are always looking for farm or rural cats for those cats that didn’t have the kindest of upbringings or those cats that can be a bit grumpy with people.

Anna Paint GSPCA Animal Care Supervisor said “We currently have three cats with us that are more suited to a free roaming/rural life, Meet. Jim, Ramsey and Twiglet.”
