People advised to keep cats indoors to ensure their safety
The Battlefords Humane Society is asking pet owners to try to keep their cats inside following a number of cases of people targeting cats in the community.
The society received reports of cats being injured on the streets in North Battleford, by people either swerving their vehicles to try to hit one on the road, or shooting them with pellet guns.
The organization put a post on its Facebook Page warning owners of the risk.
“Make sure you know where your animals are at all times,” Acting Manager Chloe Lloyd said. “The only way we can keep them safe unfortunately is keeping them home.”
