Each year the GSPCA helps in excess of 2000 wild animals and birds.

Last year we saw a record breaking number of hedgehogs with over 700 through our doors and we currently have over 140 in our care.

All three seal pups continue to do well with Joey as you can see from the little white coat pup is eating extremely well on his own in our pools with Ellie and Titan who also progress well.

Sadly we continue to see very sick pigeons as the Pigeon Paramyxovirus spreads across the Island and we have had birds and reports from most Guernsey Parishes.

Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager said “Today is #NationalWildlifeDay and with over 2000 wild animals and birds through our doors every year and record breaking numbers of hedgehogs last year we are kept busy 365 days a year help wild animals in need.”

“We sadly continue to see very sick pigeons and reports of deceased birds in many Parishes with Pigeon Paramyxovirus and we continue to urge poultry and pigeon owners to take safety precautions with their birds.”

“Some good news is all three seal pups continue to improve daily and Joey is leading the way eating for himself and putting on weight.”

“With this awful weather there are lots of ways to support wildlife and to find out some ideas check out http://www.gspca.org.gg/blog/cold-weather-advice-help-animals-guernsey-gspca-1 .”

“24/7 we help wildlife but we couldn’t do so much without your support.”

“If you find sick wildlife you can call us 24/7 on 01481 257261 and we have lots of advice also on our website http://www.gspca.org.gg/animals/wildlife-advice .”

“With few fund raisers and next to no boarding due to lockdown the GSPCA income has been hit hard and we need your support now more than ever.”

“There are many ways you can help support our vital 24/7 work and donate or raise funds for the hundreds of animals in our care.”

“With over 140 hedgehogs, 3 seal pups, dogs, cats, rabbits, ferrets, fish, reptiles and many birds we help over 3000 animals through the doors every year.”

“With so many animals in our care we would love you to join our sponsor scheme to help us each month.”

“Just a couple of pounds each month can make a massive difference in helping the animals in our care and to find out more please go to http://www.gspca.org.gg/sites/default/files/Angel%20sponsor%20form%20special%202018%20new.pdf .”
