The GSPCA are always trying to ensure we match up the right animal for the right home.

Animals come into the Shelter for all sorts of reasons and we have to ensure each is suited to a home that can meet its needs.

The GSPCA is a self-supporting Guernsey charity and we depend on the people of the Island for the funding needed to maintain our work for the animal welfare and rescue work that is carried out 24 hours 7 days a week.

Our current adoption procedure is as follows:-

If we have an animal we believe is suitable for you/your family, a member of the relevant team will be in touch

The team will then invite you in to visit the animals and to chat through the care and facilities/areas/enclosure your new pet will have. We will also ask for photos of your home or do a home visit to check that everything is suitable.

A decision is made and we will contact you to discuss a date and time to come up to the shelter to fill in the adoption paperwork and collect your new pet.

We do have some limited pet goods on sale in our reception that you can purchase when you come in to adopt.

Within a week of adoption we would really appreciate pictures/videos and an update how you and your new pet are doing.

The adoption donations are only a contribution to the costs of (depending on species), for example, neutering, microchipping, parasite treatment, vaccinations, care and the large running costs of GSPCA Animal Shelter.

We can blood test Cats for FIV / FELV for an additional £30 before adoption if you are interested in having this done.

If you are adopting a Rabbit or Ferret, we neuter and microchip them if they are old enough before you collect.
