Cat-astrophy! 300 Dead Cats in Man's Freezers

Tuesday May 6, 2008
300 Dead Cats in Freezer

Police say they found 300 dead cats stuffed into the freezers of Michael Louis Vondueren, a 47-year-old man from Sacramento, whose home was littered with cat feces.

Perhaps the only shred of relief for cat lovers is that 30 felines were rescued from the house, along with Vondueren's 81-year-old mother.

Vondueren was arrested on suspicion of possession of an automatic weapon and obstructing police officers, and animal control officials say he might face additional charges.

This is just the latest incident of humans behaving badly in California. Over the weekend, a 24-year-old from Santa Rosa was arrested at Six Flags Discovery Kingdom for punching a camel on a dare.

This creep must be mentally ill. I hope they put him in a psychiatric hospital.

I’ll post follow-up if I find any. I wouldn’t be surprised if you’re right.
