Coca Cola the Pipistrelle Bat rescued and back in the wild

Submitted by Steve on 16:31, 22nd May, 2019 | 0

We see all sorts of animals, of all sorts of shapes and sizes.

Last week a pipistrelle bat was found in St Martins and brought into the GSPCA.

After two nights of care and a full health check ‘Coca Cola’ as the female bat was called was able to be returned back to the wild.

Beckie Bailey GSPCA Animal Care Assistant and Bat Volunteer said “The bat that was rescued last week was a female.”

“She had old scares on her wings, that thankfully had all healed but that’s what the white marks were.”

RIP Major the GSPCA much loved cockerel

Submitted by Steve on 15:46, 22nd May, 2019 | 0

Many visitors over recent years will know the friendly and familiar face of Major the cockerel.

Major turned up at the GSPCA with an elderly hen  a few years ago.  It was unclear if they were strays, just escaped from a near by farm or home or if they had been dumped at the GSPCA.

Sadly Majors wife was very elderly and wasn’t with us long, but for the last few years Major has strutted his stuff around the GSPCA and made many friends.

Many visitors would find him following them around and he loved many of the staff and volunteers that fed and cared for him.
