GSPCA Towel & Blanket Appeal

Submitted by Steve on 20:51, 8th Jun, 2017 | 0

With over 450 animals in our care we are extremely busy at the GSPCA.

At the GSPCA we are appealing for blankets and especially towels to help to provide them bedding, for handling and drying them off.

So if you are clearing out your airing cupboard or sorting through your linen please think of the many animals in our care.

Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager said "We use hundreds of towels and blankets every day at the GSPCA and our laundry machines are on around the clock."

Last weekend at the GSPCA Animal Welfare Seafront Sunday we had a huge undertaking getting everything needed from the GSPCA on to the Seafront and back in the hours allowed.

Could you donate to Bailey a very sweet Shih Tzu's operation and care at the GSPCA

Submitted by Steve on 09:42, 2nd Jun, 2017 | 0

Bailey a 3 year old Shih Tzu is an extremely sweet and wonderful natured lady which all of the staff and volunteers have fallen in love with at the GSPCA.

Since arriving at the GSPCA, as sadly her owner could no longer care for her, it was quickly established that she was in need of an operation and a number of treatments.

Last week Bailey went along to the vets to be sedated for an operation after having blood in her urine and difficulty urinating. The vets performed an operation which resulted in removing 4 very large bladder stones.

The GSPCA are currently looking for additional staff members to help with our increasingly busy front desk, the animals, cleaning and develop our charity shop area

The closing date for these posts is Tuesday 6th June 2017.

The roles are to help cover 7 days a week and especially on weekends and bank holidays when the GSPCA is often extremely busy.

We have a team of 20 staff and over 700 volunteers and without the whole team we couldn't help the 3000+ animals that come through the doors every year, care for the many boarders and achieve so much.
