A pack of radioactive cats lives near a British nuclear complex

A pack of feral cats with cesium and plutonium in their feces lives in Siskale, a town near Britain’s Sellafield nuclear complex. Activists estimate the number of radioactive animals to be close to a hundred.

Concerned residents said that workers at the complex fed the stray cats waste and allowed them to stay warm for decades under the nuclear complex’s huge steam pipes. As a result, the animals accumulated radiation. In doing so, they brought danger to Siskiyou, which is in close proximity to Sellafield.
