A new facility for some 150 cats has been inaugurated at Ghammieri government farm.

The Parliamentary Secretary for Animal Care, Roderick Galdes, said the cats could now roam on soil instead of being confined in rabbit cages.

The new facility, he said, also afforded the cats greater protection from the summer sun and the winter cold.

He warned that it is a crime for anyone to abandon animals.

The cats at Ghammieri are available for re-homing.
