'Heartbreaking': Vets evaluate nearly 900 animals rescued from eastern Iowa home

From the Des Moines Register:

VINTON, Ia. — More than 24 hours after hundreds of animals were taken from an eastern Iowa home, veterinarians and others were still counting and evaluating them Wednesday to get a handle on the rescue. Also on Wednesday, the homeowner denied the animals were malnourished or otherwise neglected.

Preston Moore, director of the Cedar Valley Humane Society, said the shelter has never brought in more animals at once in its 117-year history.

“It was really heartbreaking,” he said, describing the work as "overwhelming." He called the animals' living conditions inhumane, with some animals living among carcasses and other animals found dead in a freezer.
