US Edition28 cats discovered lifeless in New York home after neighbours complained of foul odour
- Emergency personnel, including Suffolk County SPCA and Islip Hazmat team, responded Saturday afternoon to a Bohemia, New York home after reports of multiple dead cats and a strong ammonia odor inside the residence.
- The response followed neighbor complaints of a foul smell and frequent sightings of numerous cats around the property, where the owner reportedly became overwhelmed after his wife's recent death.
- Inside the two-story Colonial, authorities discovered about 28 dead cats, some stored in a freezer, and estimated around 50 live cats in overcrowded, unsanitary conditions requiring urgent veterinary care.
- Roy Gross, Chief of the SPCA, reported that the rescued cats were in poor health, with three having to be put down the previous evening, while volunteers experienced vomiting due to the challenging conditions encountered during the rescue.
- The residence was condemned with 'Keep Out' signs posted, and local authorities are investigating while rescue groups seek $10,000 in donations to support the medical treatment of surviving cats.
