RSPCA appeal after 17 pets abandoned
The RSPCA is appealing for information after 17 degus were found dumped in woodland in Newport on Saturday.
The animals were found in woodland in the Ringland area by a member of the public who was walking his dogs. RSPCA Inspector Christine McNeil said: “Someone has deliberately dumped these animals without a second thought for their welfare. They have allowed them to breed and just thrown them out like rubbish when they have tired of them. Fortunately they were found before anything bad happened." The RSPCA is now trying to trace the owner, and anyone with information is asked to call 0300 123 8018.
