SPCA pleads for responsible pet ownership
The Prince Albert SPCA is reminding community members how important responsible pet-ownership is, after a P.A. home was found to have more than 35 cats.
Kathleen Howell, operations manager of the Prince Albert SPCA said the residence was initially found to have a plethora of cats after a series of complaints from a concerned neighbour.
“About a year and a half ago was when we first started dealing with this house,” Howell said. “We got phone calls from the surrounding neighbours with concerns that there was just an unmanageable amount of cats coming in and out of the house.”
SPCA staff, in conjunction with bylaw officers, went to the home and discovered approximately 30 cats within the residence. The homeowner assisted with the removal of the cats, and all of the animals were found to be friendly and healthy.
