The bodies of over 500 cats were discovered abandoned in an apartment in Cheonan, South Chungcheong Province, South Korea.
According to Cheonan City and the abandoned animal rescue organization ``Beautiful Stories with Animals,'' the day before, a child in Tongnam-gu was found dead on the 17th.
A resident reported to the Administrative Welfare Center in Bongmyeong-dong that there was an apartment building with a terrible odor, and they suspected that the landlord was an animal hoarder.
According to the results of the investigation by the city and an animal rescue corporation, the bodies of more than 500 cats weighing 7.5 tons and 28 living cats were discovered inside the house.
The owner of the house, Ms. A, a woman in her 60s, reportedly rescued a stray cat four years ago and raised it at her home. Mr. A is currently ill due to deteriorating health.
He is currently hospitalized. A Cheonan city official said, ``There have been many complaints about bad odors, but even when officials tried to visit them, they refused to consult with us, making it very difficult.''
Special cleaning and other work has been completed." Lee Kyung-mi, director of ``Beautiful Stories with Animals,'' said, ``As a result of allowing cats to breed senselessly, the bodies of hundreds of kittens were generated.''
The body was sent to a crematorium."
