Radioactive cats invade a village in Britain
Kittens with Atoms! People in the area were attacked by "radioactive" cats after workers at the UK's most dangerous site, which has been called "nuclear Narnia," fed 100 strays. But are these cats real?
Protesters say that Europe's biggest nuclear plant is putting people's safety at risk.
Chiefs at Sellafield strongly deny that the cats are a danger to the public.
Some protesters say that swarms of "radioactive" cats have taken over the homes of people who live near a huge site called the UK's "nuclear Narnia."
People who are against nuclear power say that strays that are roaming freely around the Sellafield nuclear plant on the coast of Cumbria are dangerous because they are "literally pooing plutonium."
Workers at Sellafield, Europe's biggest nuclear power plant, fed the cats scraps and let them stay warm under huge steam pipes for decades, which helped the colony grow.
But protesters in the area have criticised site managers for putting the village of Seascale, which is less than three miles away, at risk.
Radiation Free Lakeland (RAFL), the group, says it talked to experts and found that the cats' poop has traces of plutonium and caesium that can be found.
This idea is strongly rejected by Sellafield officials, who say the stray cats, which locals have called "atomic kittens," do not pose any danger to the public.
Sellafield is a nuclear plant in Cumbria that was built during the Cold War as part of an arms race.
The Nuclear Decommissioning Authority of the UK owns Sellafield, and about 10,000 people work there.
Protesters against nuclear power say that "radioactive" cats have lived at the site for decades and hid under big steam pipes for warmth.

But MailOnline has seen papers that show some of Sellafield's 11,000 workers have been told they will be punished if they feed the cats because it makes them gather around the offices.
Alarms were raised at Sellafield this week after news came out that it had been hacked by hacking groups with ties to Russia and China.
The government doesn't know when the site was hacked for the first time, but they did find sleeper malware in 2015 that can be used to spy on or attack computers.
It's not clear if this malware is still in computer systems, since top staff are said to have hidden the fact that it was there.
