“A kind member of the public took the kittens into the USPCA Newry Animal Hospital this morning and they are now being cared for.”
The animal charity said that without the kindness of their rescuers the kittens would have died.
“Thanks are due to the rescuers, without their intervention the kittens would have died and shame on the callous individual who saw fit to dump them to their fate.”
