Organised by RSPCA Northamptonshire BranchWe are raising money to help with the quarantine costs of four kittens who came into our care having unknowingly travelled on the back of a lorry from Poland to Northampton!

The campaign has now expired but it's not too late to support this charity.
Visit the charity's profileIn May, four kittens were found in Northampton on the back of a lorry having travelled 1000-miles from Poland. At just two weeks old the kittens had travelled through Poland, Germany, The Netherlands, Belgium and France, before taking to the high sea (…well, the English Channel) and arriving in the UK.
After spending the night in the care of the RSPCA Northamptonshire Branch’s foster carer receiving feeds every two hours, the charity worked alongside Trading Standards and these little ones were moved into quarantine.
Quarantine is also very expensive, at £2500 to cover all the necessary treatment and care. This is a big cost for a small branch like ourselves. The amount covers their on-going care, vaccinations, additional vaccinations including rabies, blood tests and more.
Once the kittens have been cleared by quarantine, they will be released back into our care ready to find their forever homes after quite an adventurous start to life!
