30 Kittens Rescued Since May Await Loving Homes
Around 30 kittens have been taken in since the end of May, and the Official Animal Collection Centre (CRO / Centro de recolha oficial) of Santa Cruz is now looking for homes for them. Most of the kittens are under three months old and have been rescued by the Santa Cruz Fire Brigade, the CROA itself, or caring citizens who later brought them to the centre.
Over 100 Adult Cats Also Up for Adoption
In addition to the kittens, a colony of more than 100 adult cats is also available for responsible adoption. All cats are seeking caring and committed guardians.

Abandoning kittens at this stage is incredibly insensitive. This baby arrived freezing cold and starving.
A mother left without her babies and still unsterilised.
