The Oakland County Prosecutor’s Office has authorized charges against owners of a West Bloomfield house for what’s said to be the largest animal hoarding case in the county’s history. According to authorities, many of the cats taken from the house were suffering from various health issues including upper respiratory infections, fleas, skin infections, ear mites and malnutrition. The execution of a search warrant initially turned up at least 100 cats inside. Authorities said they didn’t live in the house with the cats, which had been collected over a number of years. In a news release issued last month, Oakland County Animal Shelter and Pet Adoption Center Manager Bob Gatt said that it was the worst animal hoarding case he’d ever seen.
