Animal control workers have removed 46 cats and 7 carcasses from a Sioux City house.

Cindy Rarrat, of Sioux City Animal Adoption & Rescue Center, says conditions inside 1818 Grandview Boulevard Monday evening were unbearable and unfit for humans or animals.



Law officers executed a search warrant and workers started removing the animals. No one was home, but Rarrat says authorities know who was responsible:

Neighbors say no one has lived in the home for a couple of months.  The cats were taken to the rescue center.
