A rabbit is not just for Easter

Submitted by GSPCA on 17:14, 19th Mar, 2013 | 0

Every year as the weather warms and Easter arrives some parents think of rabbits as an a pet for their child.

The GSPCA this March want to send the message that a rabbit isn't just for Easter!!!

Over the last 18 months the GSPCA has had more stray and unwanted rabbits than the previous 5 years.

Many rabbits are bought on impulse and are housed in small hutches at the end of the garden with no exercise and the child often forgets the poor pet that is left for the parents to care for.

Friendly stray rabbit found in St Martins last night

Submitted by GSPCA on 09:25, 5th Mar, 2013 | 0

Last night the GSPCA was called out to collect a stray rabbit.

Found in St Martins, the very friendly black with a little white, female adult lop eared rabbit was rescued after being found roaming the area.

Safe and sound at the GSPCA we are appealing for anyone that might have lost their hoppy little friend.

Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager said 'She appears very friendly and very healthy so it is likely she has escaped out of someones garden as there will be many out in this lovely weather.'

'We get many stray rabbits in and care for over 100 every year.'

Taking care of your pets with the cold weather coming

Submitted by GSPCA on 14:09, 12th Jan, 2013 | 0

With cold weather coming and potential sleet and snow on the way the GSPCA want pet owners to consider all the animals of Guernsey. During a cold snap the GSPCA are on full alert, ready to deal with a variety of animals affected by the low temperatures.

But you can also do your bit to prevent animals suffering over the cold period.

Do you have a pond?

If you have a pond, make sure you check it every day for ice, as toxic gases can build up in the water of a frozen pond. These can kill fish or frogs that are hibernating at the bottom.

Submitted by GSPCA on 09:38, 13th Sep, 2012 | 0

In the last year the GSPCA has had more rabbits come in stray, unwanted and for rehoming than any of the staff can remember.

From Saturday the GSPCA will have a rabbit display at the front of the Shelter to educate about the needs of rabbits and the fact that a hutch is not enough.

Last month saw a dramatic change in the way rabbits are kept at the Animal Shelter and these large runs are currently both on display and for sale at the GSPCA for only £185.
