Headline: Tiny Trio Of Lost Kittens Act As 'Catalytic Converter' By Huddling For Warmth In Car Engine
Caption: **VIDEO AVAILABLE: CONTACT INFO@COVERMG.COM TO RECEIVE** Three tiny kittens, Sloan, Mimi, and Fawn are on the mend after being discovered huddling for warmth inside a car engine. They are currently being cared for by Cats Protection Northern Ireland Cat Centre in Dundonald, Northern Ireland. The kittens were just four weeks old when they came to the centre after being rescued by a concerned member of the public who heard distressed meowing coming from under the car's bonnet. Covered in dirt and engine oil, the kittens were swiftly brought to the safety of Cats Protection where they have been receiving the specialised care and attention they need to survive. Andrew Doherty, Cats Protection Northern Ireland Cat Centre Manager, said: “We think these vulnerable kittens had likely been abandoned by their mother and tucked themselves into the car engine for warmth and safety. “Sloan, Mimi, and Fawn have required round-the-clock care from our dedicated team, including frequent small meals, gentle cleaning, specialised kitten formula, and lots of TLC. “The kittens are going from strength to strength so far, however there's no substitute for mum and we will continue to monitor Sloan, Mimi and Fawn very closely and take it a day at a time.” Cats Protection is appealing to the community to raise £1000 to support Sloan, Mimi, and Fawn’s ongoing care. The money will go towards providing specialist food, medical care, vaccinations, microchipping, and eventual neutering for these kittens. Andrew continues: “We receive no government funding, so we rely entirely on donations from kind-hearted people to help our cats. “Without public support, we wouldn’t be able to provide the lifesaving care and attention these kittens desperately need. Every penny counts, and every donation - no matter how small - brings us closer to our goal of giving Sloan, Mimi, and Fawn the future they deserve. “We are a community of passionate volunteers, employees, and supporters, all working to make life better for cats. These kittens are just three examples of the many cats who end up in our care and with your help, we can give them, and countless others, the second chance they deserve.” To support Sloan, Mimi, and Fawn, please consider making a donation via Cats Protection Northern Ireland Cat Centre’s Just Giving page here: www.justgiving.com/page/northern-ireland-cat-centre-sloanmimifawn-24
