The BC SPCA Kamloops animal centre has recovered several adult cats and kittens from a property, and is getting ready to receive between 15 and 25 more cats from the same property over the next few weeks.

The animals were prioritized for recovery, with a female cat, her four kittens, and five other adults in the first intake. Sadly, two of the adult cats needed to be euthanized, while the kittens tested positive for coccidia and one of the adult cats tested positive for giardia. All the cats immediately went into quarantine and were treated.

香蕉视频直播淭his happens all too often when a kind person feeds a stray cat,香蕉视频直播� says Daria Evans, manager of the BC SPCA香蕉视频直播檚 Kamloops animal centre. 香蕉视频直播淚n this case the finders began feeding stray cats in their community during the pandemic, and in no time at all the number of cats in their home more than doubled.

Evans adds that it香蕉视频直播檚 likely that all of the cats in the home will require treatment, so the Kamloops centre is preparing for that. Coccidia and giardia are parasitic infections of the intestinal tract and are typically treated with oral medications and intravenous fluids if required. Although quite common and very treatable, they are both contagious. Once the cats clear quarantine, they will be placed with a BC SPCA foster carer or 香蕉视频直播� if they are ready 香蕉视频直播� made available for adoption.

香蕉视频直播淥ur goal is to bring all these babies into our care and treat them as soon as possible,香蕉视频直播� says Evans. 香蕉视频直播淭he kittens are very playful and sweet. They were a little grumpy when we gave them their coccidia baths, but that is to be expected. They now seem to be much happier and content.香蕉视频直播�

The adult cats appear to be a mixture of indoor and outdoor animals. Staff at the centre have been pleasantly surprised at how comfortable the cats are around people, even though some may not have had as much human socialization as others. 香蕉视频直播淭hey are very affectionate and love it when staff comes around to feed and care for them," says Evans.

She notes that this case is a reminder that people should reach out if there are stray cats in their area, and the earlier the better.
