It’s #NationalPetDay how is your pet celebrating?

Submitted by Steve on 08:53, 11th Apr, 2019 | 0

National Pet Day is a chance for those of us who own pets to show them how much we love them.

We all can think of the traditional things: a new toy, some tasty treats, or a long walk in the park, maybe a game of fetch, assuming you have a dog!

But, think outside the box and come up with some ideas to celebrate your relationship with your pet. Once you have indulged your own animals with their favourite treats, why not consider donating to the many animals at the GSPCA?

On Sunday afternoon the GSPCA team were shocked to find two musk turtles dumped at the Animal Shelter in St Andrews.

Every day the GSPCA helps animals in need and for those owners that need to part with their pets no matter the circumstances we are here to assist them.

On Sunday afternoon Senior Animal Care Assistant Yvonne Chauvel was carrying out her duties caring for the many animals in her department when she came across the two musk turtles abandoned at the GSPCA.

GSPCA saddened to hear that Kodak the capuchin has passed away

Submitted by Steve on 19:21, 10th Apr, 2019 | 0

In December 2007 we welcomed a very unusual visitor to the GSPCA – Kodak, a 5 year old Tufted Capuchin monkey.

Taken from the wild and sold as a pet to a gentleman in Greece, who thankfully realised that to keep Kodak isolated from species of his own kind, was cruel. Kodak was relinquished to a monkey sanctuary in Holland (AAP) and eventually, a place was found for him at the Monkey Sanctuary Trust in Cornwall.
