Plus many more animals neglected!
The seizure of more than 200 dogs and birds from a small home in the Oak Ridge area Friday was described as possibly the largest ever removal of abandoned animals in Orange County.
Deputy sheriffs, workers from the county's Animal Services Division and the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals of Central Florida took roughly five hours to clear the cinderblock house on Marot Street.
By the time they were done, 57 dogs and 146 birds were pulled from the house crowded with excrement, animals and trash. One dog was dead.
"All of my officers are saying this is the worst case they have ever seen," said Vanessa Bouffard, a spokeswoman for the county's Animal Services Division.

I hope this abuse of animals gets severe punishment, no matter how 'friendly' the owner! :furious:
