A total of 31 cats, most of them healthy but some needing treatment for parasites or disease, were rescued from a home on Black Walnut Way after authorities received an anonymous tip earlier this month.
The cats had been using the home, owned by Morgan Hill resident Gene Medina, as a litter box, according to police. Medina has declined comment.
In this video, we talk to police and an animal shelter worker about the seizure and cat hoarding, and we watch the cats being seized through video caught by a neighbor across the street.
