The SPCA of Westchester says it is overwhelmed with support after rescuing over 150 cats from a hoarding situation in Yorktown. AielloTV reports the need for help keeps growing as rescued cats deliver kittens.
One kitten born Tuesday morning was part of the biggest cat rescue ever for the SPCA of Westchester - 151 cats and counting.
"We've had such an amazing response from the community, from people in our own backyard, to across the country, to overseas," said Lisa Bonnano ofAll of the rescued cats need medical attention. Almost all have respiratory and eye infections. The vet bills will surpass $40,000. The SPCA says over the weekend dozens of people stopped by to drop off supplies. Many of them said they're also interested in eventually adopting one of the cats.
"Some are going to take a few months to really recover and be able to go up for adoption. Others will hopefully be able to go up sooner," Bonnano said. The story is heartbreaking on many levels. The homeowners, a man and woman in their 50s, were found dead in a bedroom in the decrepit home. CBS2's Tony Aiello has learned the man who died recently retired from the New York City Sanitation Department. One colleague told Aiello"he was just a great guy, someone everyone turned to for help. None of us can understand this.
Rescue groups are working with the homeowner to remove the cats in stages so no shelter is overwhelmed.
