The sun may be shining outside, but it’s raining cats at the Langley Animal Protection Society (LAPS). Last week, with nearly 80 cats already in residence, LAPS welcomed another 14 felines into its shelter.
“We are working very hard for these lost, needy, and unwanted animals in our care, giving them the medical attention that they need while keeping them healthy and happy until they go to their forever homes,” LAPS staff say.
Of the 14 new residents who arrived on July 5, six are wee kittens from two separate litters. One of the litters included four babies, whom a good Samaritan brought to LAPS along with their mother after finding them on his property and doing some preliminary work to help socialize them.
“We are so grateful for the kind people that took the time to bring these seven cats here – one of them even persevering [after] getting lost on the way!” say staff.
If you’re thinking of adding a cat or kitten to your family this summer, consider adopting from a shelter. To learn more about the animals at LAPS, visit www.lapsbc.ca.
