Angels of Assisi rescues 29 cats from home after owner evicted

ROANOKE, Va. ā€“ 29 cats were rescued from a home after being abandoned.

According to Angels of Assisi, they took in the cats after their owner was evicted from a home, leaving them behind.

They were found a few hours away from Roanoke. The group said theyā€™re working with Animal Control on the case so they canā€™t disclose further details.

Staff said the cats were hungry and thirsty, and facing health problems.

Now, the staff is working to give them some tender love and care.

ā€œOnce theyā€™re all better and we can finish getting all their vetting done they will be up for adoption and looking for loving families to call their own,ā€ Angels of Assisi Director of Communications Dayna Reynolds said. ā€œTheyā€™re doing very well, and weā€™re just so thankful that theyā€™re safe, and warm and have full bellies.ā€
