SINGAPORE — When a sewage pipe burst in his flat, the house owner abandoned the unit but left his 20 cats behind. He informed the authorities only eight days later.
By the time rescuers arrived at the Bukit Merah flat, the unit's floor had been covered in human waste and some of the stranded cats were drinking liquid from the sewage pipe leak.
The owner had left the cats, including a kitten, to “fend for themselves”, putting them at risk of malnutrition and poisoning from the toxins in human waste, SPCA added.
