Two kittens have been dumped outside a vet clinic in Auckland, with a note saying de-sexing is too expensive.
The cats were left in a container which was taped shut.
They have now been transferred to the SPCA Mangere centre and are receiving care before they're put up for adoption.
The SPCA said it knows de-sexing can be more than some people can afford, but it's a basic expectation of responsible pet ownership.
SPCA General manager Animal Services, Corey Regnerus-Kell speaks to Susana Leiataua.
