Please Help This Stunning Cat Called Deacon. He Needs Your Help.

Submitted by GSPCA on 18:41, 12th Mar, 2012 | 0

Deacon is a stunning 7 month old  black and white kitten that has won the hearts of staff and visitors at the Shelter.  

Sadly he has been diagnosed with gingivostomatitis, a quite painful disease of the gums. Unfortunately there are a lot of contributing factors to the condition which means that Deacon will have to undergo lots of veterinary treatment until it can be brought under control.  Sadly if the initial treatments are not effective he may have to have most of his teeth removed all of which is likely to exceed £1000!.

Blue is a very special chap and is still in need of a home

Submitted by GSPCA on 15:55, 3rd Mar, 2012 | 0

Blue came into the Animal Shelter as an extremely thin stray nearly 3 months ago. 

After doing a number of tests it has become apparent that the poor little fella is hyperthyroid and therefore on treatment for the rest of his life.

The vet has estimated that he is between 9 and 11 years old but it is difficult to say due to his health problems.

Gizmo needs your help - GSPCA Animal Shelter longest stay cat is in need of her forever home

Submitted by GSPCA on 16:05, 12th Jan, 2012 | 0

The GSPCA have cats in to the Shelter nearly every day of the year.  They come in as ferals, strays, unwanted, rescues, new born kittens, road traffic accidents as well as many other reasons.

Many of the cats that are for rehoming often only stay with us for a matter of weeks before they find a new loving owner.

Gizmo came in on the 26th January 2011 and the GSPCA are hoping to find her a home before she becomes the only animal in the Shelter that has been here for what will be over a year.

Submitted by GSPCA on 11:04, 15th Dec, 2011 | 0

If you can say that your job, or even your life, is like trying to herd cats, then this day is for you!

Cat Herders Day was created by Thomas and Ruth Roy of Wellcat Holidays to honor all of the people in the world whose lives can be compared to the impossible task of herding cats. This time of year it is easy to feel as if we’re chasing after a bunch of independent-minded felines.

GSPCA condemns puppy farms and buying animals off of the internet

Submitted by GSPCA on 19:11, 17th Nov, 2011 | 0

The GSPCA has had recent reports of not only individuals that may have received puppies from puppy farms in the UK but also individuals that have been deceived online from websites advertising puppies for sale.

The GSPCA always encourages responsible pet ownership and by purchasing animals on line or from a puppy farm is far from helping animal welfare.
