For cremations we can now provide a delivery service of £15 if you would like your beloved pets ashes returned without having to come to the GSPCA.

At the GSPCA we know how much you treasure the memory of your pets when they are no longer with you.

We are a caring animal welfare organisation dedicated to providing your pet with the very best in dignity when their time finally comes to say goodbye, whilst at the same time giving you, the owner, total peace of mind.

Forward Planning
Coping with the death of a pet can be a heart-breaking experience, but sensible forward planning now can smooth away some of the emotional stress you will feel at this time. Having considered the various choices open to you can follow the options below to ensure that your pet receives the very best of care when the time comes.

Collection
When the time comes, the GSPCA are on hand to collect your pet from your home or veterinary practice. However, you may prefer to bring your pet personally to the Animal Shelter where you will always receive a warm and friendly welcome from our dedicated team.

We also operate a service where we can deliver your pets ashes for just £16.25, even if you are self isolating or shielding, please ask the team for more details.

If you would like paw prints or hair from your beloved pet please do ask for details.

 The Environment

We, at the GSPCA, take our responsibility of managing global resources seriously so source our products from Pet Tributes who do their utmost to source our products ethically and with consideration to environmental and social impacts.

The GSPCA regularly review our products and procedures in order to make improvements, such as: -

  • transporting products in ways which minimize environmental impact
  • using packaging made from recycled material wherever possible
  • insisting suppliers who source raw materials in a responsible and sustainable way
  • ensuring products are made from 100% natural biodegradable materials where possible
  • regularly visiting all manufacturers to inspect working standards and practices and offering support in production methods where necessary
  • using community based manufacturing wherever possible, such as in villages and co-operatives, rather than large factories. This, in turn, supports rural economies and reduces the environmental impact of commuting and migrant working and the consequent social impact on workers.

 Please note that we are no longer able to cremate goats or sheep unless classed as pets. Please contact the States Crematorium for further details: 246541
