ROANE COUNTY, W.Va. (WSAZ) -- The Roane County Animal Shelter had an unexpected surprise Monday -- the arrival of 119 cats and kittens.
Shelter volunteers tell WSAZ.com they are not equipped to deal with that many cats. It normally houses about 20 felines comfortably.
The 119 cats were relinquished by an owner who couldn't care for them.

Slings could I have a kitty ping please?
I hate to ask but WV had a bad storm recently and I am sure that is what lead to this. That and the bad economy.
I sure hope our WV FReepers can take a cat or two off the shelters hands.
thanks,
Morgana

I’m sure they have a Chinese food restaurant locally that can help out. (just kidding)
I hope they find good homes for all the cats.

First off, thanks for the ping.
But damn! I got 2 rescues from the woods. And I'm a dog kind of guy.
I got 2 real Viking Kitties. They eat, sleep, and poop 24/7.

Same here. I don’t understand getting a pet in the first place if you aren’t going to take the most basic responsibility. Why bother??

Judging by the supplies requested, that shelter has some serious problems. Canned food?
I hope there is a vet in the picture.

I can see it after having worked in a kennel. Some older cats can only eat that.
