Resident found dead, dozens of cats rescued from Ligonier Township home

Mar. 21—Forty cats are recovering after being rescued from a home in Ligonier Township this week. Jen Johnson, president of Ninth Life Rescue Center, said felines are still being trapped outside after they escaped when police got into the home Monday evening to check on a resident. The animals didn't have food or water and many, including 10 kittens, have medical issues such as vestibular disease and infections. The deplorable conditions made it difficult for Ninth Life volunteers, who were assisted by All But Furgotten, to capture the felines. "It was a battle to find them all," Johnson said. "They're going to be very costly ... and this is just the beginning of courting season and kitten season." Some cats were found dead, she said. A 69-year-old man was found dead inside after police were asked to check on him, according to Coroner Tim Carson. The death is not considered suspicious. Ligonier Valley police could not be reached Friday. Authorities contended with dozens of empty boxes of beer, empty cat food bags and other trash strewn throughout the home, according to photos posted on social media by Ninth Life. The rescue center is seeking donations to help care for the cats. Monetary donations are accepted through PayPal at ninthliferescue@ Venmo @NinthLife-RescueCenter, through veterinarian tabs at Vought Veterinary Services and All Pets Hospital or by mail at PO Box 74, Grapeville, Pa. 15634. The organization also has Amazon and Chewy wish lists. Renatta Signorini is a TribLive reporter covering breaking news, crime, courts and Jeannette. She has been working at the Trib since 2005.
