CLEVELAND, Ohio -
Cleveland Police have pulled dozens of sick cats and kittens from a home on the city's South side.
Lisa Abdelmalak called police, when she discovered a box of kittens left behind, after a tenant moved out of a house on St. John Avenue.
"It's inhumane, i mean, look at them, they're sick. there's something really wrong with them", said Abdelmalak.
Some of the kittens are less than two weeks old, and were not even weaned from the mothers, who were locked out of the house.
Yvonne Scott was just moving in yesterday, when she also made the discovery.
"She wasn't gonna remove them herself. Either we would take them out, or she would have someone come and get them. She said she would have someone come and get them? And they never came by to get them", said Scott.
Volunteers from the rescue group P.A.W.S. spent the afternoon trying to trap the remaining cats on the property.
"Most of the kittens are very ill, we have upper respiratory infections and right now I'm trying to soak the pus off of their eyes to see just how bad they are", says Eileen Wilbourn of P.A.W.S.
The cats will now need medical treatment and P.A.W.S. is looking for people to reach out with donations and foster homes.
