The donation was made after the felines were rescued from a home near Oakville, Ontario, Canada.

Dance music’s most notable cat lover, deadmau5, has donated $30,000 to help 27 rescue cats.

On May 27, the Humane Society of Oakville, Milton & Halton, located in Oakville, Ontario, Canada, posted that it has just rescued 27 cats from a nearby household.
