Help Needed to Find Homes for Cats and Kittens Rescued from Nanaimo Hoarder

September 10, 2009

Several of the 94 cats and kittens seized by the BC SPCA on August 10th from a Nanaimo-area animal hoarder are now ready for adoption. The sick and neglected cats have been receiving care at various Vancouver Island SPCA shelters.

BC SPCA Const. Tina Heary, who led the investigation, says some of the cats and kittens will require further veterinary care, but many are ready for new, loving homes. She noted that none of the cats will be returned to their former owner.
