What happens to 30 cats ... A new owner was not found due to the collapse of multiple breeding, February 16, 11:00

More than 30 cats rescued from a multi-headed cattle collapsed room where the number of animals is too large to keep them properly The situation of searching for an owner is continuing.

The cat was kept in a room in an apartment in Edogawa-ku, Tokyo, but was rescued by a volunteer in November last year after his owner was forced to run out of rent due to arrears.

Last year, at least about 2,000 complaints were sent to municipalities around the country last year.

However, even though municipalities can recommend their owners to improve the environment, it is difficult to enforce mandatory protection unless the owner gives up ownership of the animal. Animals are often excluded from court foreclosure.

More than 30 cats were rescued, while local volunteers rented a warehouse and took care of them, searching for new owners through the Internet, etc., but only four cats were found, and the contract for the warehouse expired. As a result, three volunteers are now searching for their owners at home.

According to Akiko Sato, who protects more than 20 animals, `` If the owner does not give up ownership or forced execution occurs due to the collapse of multi-headed breeding, who protects and provides support after that? The private sector alone has limitations in terms of manpower and costs, and I would like the government to consider specific support measures. "
