Not got a dog you can bring down, but own a pet then this is your chance to take part in a show without the need to bring them along.

We are asking pet owners to take pictures of their pets and for a donation per class you can enter your cat, rabbit, horse, donkey, stick insect, tortoise, whatever it may be into a virtual pet show.

There is even a chance to win with pictures of wildlife you may have taken.

It all takes place on Sunday 13th September as part of our Animal Welfare Seafront Sunday.

Thank you to all of our Flag Day collectors that helped Saturday & all who donated

Submitted by Steve on 14:15, 25th Aug, 2015 | 0

This year we have had to split our flag day into three so we can collect in the many locations in Guernsey.

Earlier this year on the first of the three days we collected over £1200 at the two Waitrose stores and this Saturday we had another successful day collecting in many locations around our lovely island.

We do not yet have a final total (to be confirmed), but from all of the hundreds of animals at the GSPCA a huge thank you to one and all that helped collect and also to the many that donated from all corners of Guernsey.
