The charity highlights the fact that neutering one actively breeding male and one female cat can prevent more than 2,000 unwanted kitten births in four years
The Dublin Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Animals has called on the public to foster or adopt cats from its shelter as the charity expects to receive over one thousand new cats and kittens.
One stray female cat can have at least two-to-three litters during these months, many of whom will enter the feral or stray cat population, struggling to survive in harsh conditions.The DSPCA highlights the fact that neutering one actively breeding male and one female cat can prevent more than 2,000 unwanted kitten births in four years.
"Although it can be a big commitment for the first few weeks of the kitten's life, volunteering to bottle-feed or foster kittens is a hugely rewarding experience and can provide critical socialisation at the start of a kitten's life."The shelter's cattery facility is open from 12-4pm every Tuesday to Sunday.
Lottoland's Vice-President of Corporate Affairs Laura Pearson spoke about her company's sponsorship of the DSPCA: "At Lottoland we’re delighted to support all the ongoing amazing work that the DSPCA and its volunteers selflessly carry out and particularly in busy periods like this in their fantastic cattery.
