Earlier this month two volunteers from a French cat charity popped into the GSPCA for a visit.
The two volunteers from Les Puces which is based in Brittany help cats and kittens through their network of foster homes.
Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager said “It is always wonderful to meet, chat too and show visitors from other rescues around the GSPCA.”
“It sounds like they have some real challenges with cat numbers in Brittany and it was wonderful to chat and to give them helpful tips and other organisations that can help.”

Every day the GSPCA rush animals to the vets needing vet care and treatment and one very special cat needing an operation is Starsky.
Starsky is a feral cat from Sark who we are hoping to return him to the island where someone can watch over him once he has had a much needed operation.
Starsky has already had blood tests to check he is healthy other than a nasty eye issue requiring an entropion operation which will cost with care around £500.

Every day the GSPCA rush animals to the vets needing vet care and treatment and one very special cat called Oopsie had a very large operation.
Oopsie is one of the oldest cats at the GSPCA at 17 years old who arrived in the Autumn after her owner sadly passed away.
Oopsie is a lovely cat but unfortunately had a nasty growth in ear that needs removing.
We are pleased to say te operation went well and she is now recuperating at the GSPCA.

Ruby a lovely black and white cat arrived at the GSPCA earlier this year.
She had a number of health issues on arrival and sadly as a stray no owner was found.
Many of the health issues are much better but her ears have caused her constant problems and it now transpires that due to a growth she will need an operation to remove the lump and an ear canal.

At the GSPCA we help 1000’s of animals every year, but we have seen a drop in numbers of dogs and cats needing our help find homes locally, although we do help them in many other ways.
In recent years we have been trying to help animals from UK and Irish SPCA animal shelters and Association of Dog and Cat Home members, but with the Covid Pandemic this has been very difficult.
