A huge increase in unwanted cats is putting Hamilton rescue centres under severe strain, with one saying the surge has “wiped out” their foster volunteer network.

The upsurge comes at the same time as the city council has slashed its desexing grant in half, with no guarantee it won’t be cut further as the city looks to trim costs.
