On Saturday our longest stay cat went to his new home after being at the GSPCA since September 2013.
Vinnie arrived at the GSPCA over 18 months ago after being found as a very feisty young feral at a local vinery.
With a very nervous disposition it has been very difficult to find the right owner for Vinnie, but on Saturday after the new owner spending some time getting to know him over the last few weeks we waved him off to his forever home.
Helen Sharman Animal Care Assistant said "It's been a busy few days at the GSPCA cattery with lots of our feline friends off to their new homes."
"Vinnie was so nervous and scared when he first arrived and over the months has become a lovely lad, but he does like to get to know you first."
"He has found a lovely home and his new owner Lisa spent some time coming back and forth to meet and get to know him."
"We all wish Vinnie the very best and we look forward seeing pictures of him settling into his new home."
Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager said "We have had an excellent few weeks finding homes to dozens of new animals, especially many of our cats."
"It is always a special day when our longest stay animal goes to their new home as we have all got to know them so well."
"The buildings where we keep our cats are now getting on in years and we are currently fund raising for our new multi-purpose animal welfare building which is well under way and we are appealing for individuals and businesses to join us and become a Build Partner and if you are interested we would love to hear from you."
