In an ongoing rescue operation, dozens of cats were found crowded against windows in an attempt to get away from the stench of the 200 dead cats lying in feces and garbage at a central Iowa residence.

Animal rights advocates said in a Facebook post on June 4 that the air quality inside the home was so toxic that the rescuers had to wear respirators and protective suits. They were limited to only 30 minutes inside the property.
