A CARDBOARD box containing two kittens was found abandoned by a car at Newport’s Spytty Retail Park on Monday, December 11.

A spokeswoman for the RSPCA said: "The two male kittens, both black and white domestic short-haired cats, are believed to be aged between four and five months.

"Both kittens are in good condition, except for some evidence of fleas, and are very friendly – suggesting that they are very likely to have come from a domestic environment."

RSPCA inspector Gemma Black said: “Anyone with information about how these two cats were dumped should contact our inspectorate appeal line.

"We can be reached on 0300 123 8018, and calls are treated in confidence.”
