A Frederick County woman could face animal cruelty charges after officials found 192 live cats and seven dead ones in a mobile home.
Sheriff’s Office Major Robert Eckman said 58-year-old Linda McLaughlin is the owner of the cat-filled double-wide trailer. Eckman said the animals living in McLaughlin’s home also showed the effects of neglect and inhumane conditions.
McLaughlin could face charges of animal cruelty and animal neglect. She was not present when her cats were confiscated and has been hospitalized in Prince William County since Friday.
Officials said Wednesday that the home contains so much cat waste and cat hair that it will probably be demolished.”
