The story took a turn when the mother cat was found nearby and reunited with her babies. Now, the whole feline family is safe, cared for, and waiting for loving homes.

gregorybrown+FollowCleveland Zoo animals adapt during big changesCleveland Metroparks Zoo’s Primate Forest construction has meant big adjustments for some of its most beloved residents. While most animals moved out, the rare gharials and the orangutans stayed behind, adapting to life amid the noise and bustle. The gharials, tough to relocate, have become more nocturnal, while the orangutans clearly miss their daily interactions with visitors. Despite a few surprises—like watching a fire from their enclosure—the animals are holding up well. When the new habitats open next summer, they’ll have more space and new ways to interact with guests. How do you think animals handle change? #News #ClevelandZoo #AnimalWelfare00Share

The community’s help is urgently needed—if you know anything about how these kittens ended up there, please reach out to the RSPCA. This case is a painful reminder of why neutering pets is so important to prevent unwanted litters and suffering.

Cassandra Snyder+FollowAurora rabbits face double trouble this summerRabbits in Aurora are having a rough summer—first, a strange virus is causing them to grow odd lumps, and now someone’s been shooting them with blow darts near Southlands. Animal control is taking this seriously: not only is it cruel, but it’s also illegal and can land you with fines or jail time. If you spot an injured rabbit, call Aurora Animal Control—not the police—and you can stay anonymous. Let’s look out for all our neighborhood creatures, even the wild ones.
