Newsday has video of the rescue operation to remove 180-200 cats from one home in Moriches, Long Island. Apparently rescue group Rescue Ink got a tip about the house and the homeowner (who believes there are more like 100 cats) agreed to give up the cats. The cats are being inoculated first, then taken to centers for spaying and neutering, and finally will go to no-kill shelters in Long Island and NYC where they can be adopted. The entire process is expected to take weeks, if not months. A neighbor told Newsday the cats haven't been a bother, but, "The odor, yes. Hopefully, the cats will get the help they need." You can contact Rescue Ink at 800-510-7355 or info@rescueink.org for information on adopting the cats.

Wow that is awesome. I thought about building something to carry my cat around in on my motorcycle, but I think he would freak out from the wind. I wonder if I have enough tattoos to join this group??
Biker Barbecue this weekend!
Yes, Rescue Ink says they have an "in-your-face" approach to dealing with animal abusers!
i guess the homeowner was out of cheezburgrs
zodak, FTW!
Funny. I love the the LOL cats.
Best book I got for Christmas.....
Damn, and I'm overwhelmed by two cats.
Poor cats. I know the poor woman probably meant well, but cat-hoarding is never good for the cats. I blame all the irresponsible people who let their cats out and don't neuter or spay them.
Absolutely! NEUTER YOUR DAMN PETS, PEOPLE!!!!
It's not hard and it would solve so much abuse.
I'll do you one better:
NEUTER YOUR DAMN PEOPLE, PETS!!!!
there are spay and neuter vans now. same day service.
ahh memories when I had my cat neutered. poor guy had to sit on top of the TV so gingerly.
how did the lady afford to feed them all? they look well but then I'm not smelling them.
P.U.!
Talk about funky!
yes the cats do look well. But she should have at least neuter them. Really, it is better for the cats. My guy doesn't have to deal with the mating frustrations that I do. My male cat is immune to all the bitches. lol
