An animal rescue centre in the Westcountry is urging animal owners to 'please get your cats neutered and chipped' after a basket full of kittens was left on their doorstep earlier this week.
Bosses were shocked to find a Moses basket full of 26 kittens left on the doorstep of the Moggery HQ in Bishopston on Tuesday, after their founder, Christine Bayka, heard a 'loud banging' outside their door.
In total, 26 kittens were counted and left on their doorstep, with an appeal now launched in a bid to find who left them there.
In a statement on their social media page, The Moggery added: "A Moses basket full of kittens was left on the doorstep of Moggery HQ in Bishopston Bristol on Tuesday evening.
"Christine Bayka founder heard a loud banging and opened the door to find so many kittens she couldn’t count them!
"The 26 appeared to be from four or five litters of different ages. They were all filthy and flea ridden so we bathed them, gave them clean beds and divided them into estimated age groups.
"The oldest ones were given food, litter trays and a comfy bed the smallest were taken home to be bottle fed. This is a perfect example of things getting out of hand.
"Please please get your cats neutered and chipped. We have an Assisted Neutering Program to help people on low income and benefits."
If you are the person who left the kittens on the doorstep, you are urged to call The Moggery on 01179243128 so they can help you get your cats neutered.
