Officers from the Scottish SPCA are appealing for information after four adorable cats were found cruelly dumped in a layby in Ayrshire.
The black cats were discovered together in a dog crate in a ditch on Boig Road in Cumnock, East Ayrshire, on Monday May 30.
The animal rescue charity has slammed the one-time owner for the cruel way in which they dumped the pets - stressing that animals can be given up in a more humane fashion.
