48 cats from factory breeding rescued in Berlin apartment. Some of the animals were pregnant.
The former owner was banned from keeping animals. The man also faces a ‘significant fine’ for cruelty to the animals.“There are usually tangible financial interests of the ‘breeders’ behind it,” said Steffen Mehl, the district's official veterinarian. “With the dissolution of this attitude, the last breeding of Ukrainian Levkoy cats in Germany was probably stopped,’ explained the district office.
