Tiny Trio Of Lost Kittens Act As 'Catalytic Converter' By Huddling For Warmth In Car Engine. 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”. Cats Protection is appealing to the community to raise £1,000 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.
