SANTA CRUZ COUNTY, CA — Nearly four dozen cats and kittens are at the Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter and need new homes after they were found recently living in poor conditions in a small recreational vehicle.
The county shelter took in 47 cats in the case, in which the person hoarding them agreed to surrender the felines to the shelter.
As a result of the large influx of new residents, the shelter is offering some incentives to people who adopt cats ages 4 months and older during May.
