50 Pets Rescued From Overwhelmed Pet Owner In San Diego County
SAN DIEGO, CA — The San Diego Humane Society removed dozens of pets from a single-family home in San Diego County after their overwhelmed owner asked for help.
The Humane Society rescued 48 cats and two dogs Friday from a La Mesa area home, Humane Society spokesperson Nina Thompson said. The animals were taken to the organization’s campuses, where they were given flea treatment and vaccinations before being placed in appropriate housing.
The pets will receive medical exams and spay or neuter surgeries, Thompson said. Once they are cleared by the team, they will be made available for adoption.

“It is too early to comment on the health of the animals, because they have not received their full medical exams yet,” Thompson told Patch.
The intake occurred at a time when the Humane Society was already over capacity with 1,962 animals, including 939 cats and 795 dogs, according to the organization.
