The kittens were found by Port Alberni Fire Department crews responding to a wildfire last week.
Five kittens rescued in the aftermath of a wildfire in Port Alberni last week are recovering from burns at the Alberni-Clayoquot branch of the SPCA.
“The response from fire crews in Port Alberni was outstanding,” said branch manager Sam Sattar. “They did sweeps of the area over two days, finding one kitten and then two more shortly afterward on the first day, and then two more on a sweep the following day. “We have the kittens recovering at the home of one of our staff members so they can receive the specialized care they need to recover,” Sattar said. “They are all set up with special litter that won’t stick to their paws or cause them discomfort when they step on it.”
