SEEKING INFORMATION ❗️
On Sunday, July 11th six newborn kittens were found abandoned by a citizen in a cardboard box on Kolbec Road in rural Cumberland County. It is believed the kittens were initially dropped off in the afternoon before 6:00pm. Although SPCA Investigators responded immediately, one kitten was found deceased. The kittens are estimated to be less than two-weeks-old and were taken for immediate care.
Abandonment of an animal is a violation of the Animal Protection Act of Nova Scotia and the Criminal Code of Canada.
