Home with 170 Cats Condemned  

A smelly Wisconsin house has been deemed uninhabitable after officials removed more than 170 cats from the home, authorities said. 
Between 170 and 177 cats were taken from the house Tuesday before it was condemned by city  
officials, said Fond du Lac Police Lt. Rob Duveneck.  
Authorities said they found the cats after a nearby resident reported a "strong smell of urine" wafting from the 825-square-foot home. 

Two brothers, ages 54 and 55, were living in the home, the Fond du Lac (Wis.) Reporter said.  
One of the brothers initially told authorities only seven felines were in the urine-soaked home.  "As far as we know, there were no signs of abuse. It was just a situation that got out of control," Duveneck said. 

Most of the cats were taken to the Fond du Lac Humane Society and the rest were being held at other animal shelters, the newspaper said.

DOG TIP

Kills fleas instantly. Dawn Dish Washing Liquid does the trick. Add a few drops to your dog's bath and shampoo the animal thoroughly. Rinse well to avoid  skin irritations. Good-bye fleas.

CAT TIP

If your cat is a picky eater, there are a few things you can do to make the food more palatable. Try moistening the food with a little water or broth. Warming the food can enhance the flavor. Adding some canned food may make it more enticing. Make sure she is not filling up
on treats or human food. If your cat is not eating well, see your veterinarian.
