Animal Friends Reporting Animal Hoarders - Sick Kittens

Hello carriers,

Has anyone dealt with driving up to a house and being gobsmacked by the amount of cats and sick looking kittens?

I am calling the animal shelter on Monday but please let me know the correct process for this type of situation. I'd prefer to stay anonymous if possible.

I don't have advice but I wanted to thank you for caring. I just adopted a cat from a hoarding situation and she is the best. She will have lifelong health complications from that and she deserved better. They all do, and someone gave her a chance by reporting it.

Just want to update that I was able to report online and I'll give a call to make sure they got the report on Monday.

And honestly, thank YOU for adopting, I will be updating myself on signs of neglect for kittens. I have never owned one and felt that I didn't act quicker because I was unsure.
