spcaLA Pulls 84 Cats from North Valley Residence
Los Angeles CA – Humane Officers from the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Los Angeles (spcaLA) assisted an elderly woman in the North Valley today by removing 84 cats that were living inside her home.
Remarkably, all the cats appear to be in good condition and no charges will be filed.
“This is a case of a well-meaning person in a situation that grew completely out of control,” said spcaLA President Madeline Bernstein. “She contacted spcaLA for help and upon investigation, our humane officers agreed to assist.”
The operation began this morning about 8:30am. spcaLA Humane Officers were assisted by officers from SEEACA and Pasadena Humane Society. spcaLA is working with accredited cat rescue groups, including Meoowz ResQ to assist with providing care and finding new homes for these cats.
“This was a big undertaking that went smoothly. It’s amazing what can be done when we all work together,” said Bernstein.
Animal cruelty can be reported to spcaLA’s Animal Cruelty Tipline at 1-800-540-SPCA.
