Sadly one of the full time members of staff is unable to work the hours at the Animal Shelter and we are having to soon wish her luck in her new career.

Ashleigh Le Pelley joined the team earlier this year and although she enjoys her role very much, due to other commitments she is moving into another role but will carry on volunteering at the GSPCA.

This has made an opening for an exciting and diverse position at the GSPCA Animal Shelter in St Andrews.

Archimedes a baby Barn Owl rescued close to death last week and now eating on his own at the GSPCA

Submitted by Steve on 23:46, 8th Jun, 2016 | 0

Last week one of the GSPCA Volunteer Night Wardens were called out to rescue a very sick, weak and starving baby barn owl in St Peter Port.

The young bird was severely thin and very close to loosing his life and was found near to Candie Gardens very early on Thursday morning.

Thankfully with the skills of the team at the GSPCA and an intensive care unit the young bird has survived his first week and today started to eat on his own.

After a period inside we plan to transfer him to an outside aviary where he will learn to fly and forage for food.
