Cat Care Incorporated
RECYCLE CENTRE

On 30th December we had a call from the

Rangiora Recycle Centre to say they had rescued two small kittens and

could we take them. This is our 3rd litter this season, people seem to

think its ok to dump kittens near human activity and they will

survive. The two kittens had been put in a black plastic bag along with

their two siblings and placed in one of the huge bins at the centre.

This was picked up with fork lift and taken to the pit and emptied.

Waiting to come in was the compacter to compress the rubbish together

and to be disposed of somewhere else. The noise must have been too much

for the kittens and they broke out of the bag and took flight. A staff

member managed to grab two but the other two fled and were lost. Gilda

and Gwen came into care so traumatised by the experience they couldnt

be handled for two days. Traps were put out for the remaining two and we

had just about given up hope when on the 7th day they were caught. This

really affects the staff who work at the centre, most are animal lovers

so its hard when they see the suffering these animals go through. The

latter two kittens who are almost identical to the first two and were

extremely skinny,are now Joplin and Japan and are in care.



That is 4 females from one litter aged approx 12 weeks. If the staff

hadnt been observant this could have been 4 breeding feral females. Gwen

and Gilda have recovered and will make wonderful pets so there is hope

for the other two as well. This shouldnt happen in todays supposedly

civilised society , there is help out there. Mother cat will probably be

pregnant again now and so the cycle continues.
