Horrifying discovery made in Long Island home following reports of foul stench coming from building
About 100 dead cats were discovered in a Long Island home Saturday afternoon after fire crews responded to reports of a foul stench coming from the building, according to Suffolk County authorities.
Officials arrived at the gruesome scene around 3 p.m., where they found the feline corpses inside a freezer and strewn around the Bohemia home, the Bohemia Fire Department told The Post.
The Suffolk County SPCA initially reported a possible ammonia leak around 2 p.m., officials said, noting they were told close to 100 dead cats were inside the Westminster Drive home.
It was not immediately clear how many cats were found or if the residence was occupied.
The horror house was condemned due to high levels of ammonia.
Photos captured by The Post showed multiple living cats pawing at the windows as police investigated.
Local authorities, including the Islip Town Hazmat Team, SPCA, Fire Marshal, police and building inspector, are on the scene investigating.
The SPCA did not immediately response to The Post’s request for comment.
