Today is Ferret Day and many ferret owners will be celebrating with their wonderful pets.
In recent years we have seen a growing number of stray and unwanted ferrets and currently we have 6 ferrets in need of homes at the GSPCA.
Over the last few years the numbers of stray ferrets being found has gone up each year and we now see over 40 rescued every 12 months with the peek time being through the Summer months.
Our ferrets are neutered before rehoming and we also treat them for any other ailments they may have and we will carry out a home visit before they are homed.

Last night 23 young boys and girls from the 4th Guernsey Beavers visited the GSPCA to see behind the scenes at the Animal Shelter in St Andrews.
On a sunny evening they arrived for a 6pm tour with GSPCA Manager Steve Byrne who took a group photo of the troop before showing them around the site where they got to see baby birds being fed, hedgehogs, bunnies, our resident tortoise, a puppy and much more.
They learnt how we care for the animals at the GSPCA and the work that is carried out 24 hours 7 days a week.

Last year a new scheme was launched to help protect Guernsey pets while providing funding for the island’s leading animal charity.
Rossborough has pledged to give £10 to the Guernsey Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals each time an islander takes out pet insurance.
The partnership has been a huge boost for the charity, which recently started a multi-million pound redevelopment of its site in St Andrew’s.
