Anyone who lost a pet is asked to check the shelter's gallery regularly to see if they are at the center.
Animal shelters typically experience an influx of cats and kittens during warmer months.
To keep the number of cats coming into the shelter down, pet owners are encouraged to have their cats spayed or neutered, even if they are indoor cats.
