Six tiny kittens have been dumped in a box on the side of a road in west Wales. The male ginger kittens were found running around on a rural lane in the Mynyddcerrig area, a few miles from Pontyberem in Carmarthenshire.
They are all around nine weeks old, and had to be picked up by a member of the public who had discovered them wandering around on the road. You can keep up to date with the latest Carmarthenshire news by signing up to the local newsletter here.
The cats had made their way out of a box which someone had left in the area before abandoning them. They have now been handed over to RSPCA Cymru staff at the Llys Nini Animal Centre in Penllergaer in Swansea, where they will be vaccinated and neutered before being made available for rehoming.
