Sixty-five cats were removed from a Nampa residence after police received a complaint regarding the animals’ welfare and the resident who lived there.

Jeanette Elliott, the homeowner, was cited for 30 counts of animal cruelty, all of which are misdemeanor offenses.

Nampa police said animal control officers attempted to make contact with Elliott, but she wasn’t at her home on North Franklin Boulevard at the time.

The next day, they returned with patrol officers and members of the West Valley Humane Society to remove all cats due to “the conditions inside of the residence.”

Thirty of the 65 cats had to be euthanized after they were seen by a veterinarian. In addition to the live animals, 91 deceased cats also were removed from the property.
