With any rough and bad weather the GSPCA receives many calls about sick and injured animals.
Yesterday just after 3pm the GSPCA had a very unusual call from Jethou. A seal pup had been spotted coming ashore alongside the jetty and didn't seem quite right.

This Tuesday staff saw a very unusual site.
Geoff George the GSPCA Animal Collection Officer whilst going about his duties watched as a cormorant flew down and landed on the Christmas Lottery Ticket poster at the Shelter. Is this a sign of good luck? We don't know but tickets are selling well and are available at the Animal Shelter in St Andrews Monday to Saturday 9am to 5pm, so if you are passing please pop in.

For only five pounds you can buy a gift certificate that will give one of the animals in our care a fantastic Christmas.
That’s right you will receive a certificate for yourself or someone you care for and that will enable us at the Shelter to give the animals in our care a very special Christmas Day.

On Saturday the 12th November the GSPCA had to rush a stray tabby and white female cat that was found on a roof in St Peter Port with what looked like signs of a road traffic injury to the vets.
Unfortunately she had no collar and no microchip but is extremely friendly and staff believe that there must be an owner for her somewhere.
Due to her injuries she is still at the vets and the GSPCA are urging anyone who may own this cat to come forward.

The Association of Guernsey Charities announced at the end of October that tickets for the 2012 Christmas Lottery went on sale for only £1 each. The GSPCA Animal Shelter can now announce that from tomorrow they will be on sale at the GSPCA reception desk in St Andrews. The traditional lottery always proves to be a popular choice as it offers the chance of winning a large sum of money - and all the proceeds are given to Channel Island charities.
As well as the GSPCA tickets are on sale at shops, stores, supermarkets, garages, and many other outlets around the island.

Felix arrived at the GSPCA Animal Shelter in October in 2011 and has been at the Shelter for well over a year which makes her the longest stay cat in need of a new home. Many of you will know of Victor a cat who also came in around the same time and we are pleased to say he is off to a new home very soon.
Unfortunately Felix came in as a 3 year old semi-feral and as such was extremely nervous and timid after her bad start in life.
