High Winds due - advice from the GSPCA

Submitted by Steve on 09:21, 11th Dec, 2014 | 0

The GSPCA asks that you think of your animals with the weather bomb due.

Bad weather means it is difficult for hedgehogs and wild birds to feed normally, and young seal pups can easily be separated from their mothers.

Below is some advice on what you can do if you find an injured animal, but please remember we have a 24 hour emergency service and our number is 01481 257261.

If possible, contain the animal before calling - see our capture and boxing advice below.

Weather Warning - Please think of your animals with the high winds due

Submitted by GSPCA on 14:28, 12th Dec, 2011 | 0

During stormy and gale force weather the GSPCA often get calls to injured animals and wildlife that have been affected due to the high winds.

We are asking all pet owners and farmers to think of their animals that are kept outside or in out houses.  With the severe weather hutches and animal pens can easily be moved and damaged putting those animals kept outside at risk and in need of appropriate shelter.
