Animal Services removed 124 cats from the home and assisted the pet owner's relatives with vaccinating and sterilizing five other cats that the family will keep. Of the 124 cats taken into custody, 83 were transferred to rescue partners in Pinellas and Sarasota counties; seven are under medical care; 17 have been adopted through Animal Services and pet store partners; and two have been returned to their original owners.
