An extremely large number of cats and kittens are being brought into the Fairfax County Animal Shelter, and police are seeking help to save the animals’ lives while keeping the shelter from being overwhelmed.

Animal control officers are asking the public to spay or neuter their cats, provide foster care for cats and refrain from picking up stray cats that may actually be finding their way home.
