Most of the cages are occupied by sick cats on any given day in this shelter. During kitten season in the summer months, wire crates and a bank of old rabbit cages are moved into the room to provide additional housing because the number of sick adult cats and kittens exceeds the housing capacity in the room. Most of the cages have 4 square feet of floor space. Some of the cages only have 2 sq feet of floor space.
