If the local animal control won't do anything then contact Pasado's Safe Haven. They will know what to do. I'm amazed that this isn't considered animal cruelty.

Pasado's Safe Haven has offered to alter these cats and provide free medical care for them. We have been in contact with their owner, who does love them and also wants the best for them. Questions - contact: achenowe@pasadosafehaven.org

ANY living thing that is forced to live in a 4 foot by 8 foot cubicle is being ABUSED! These sweet innocent cats have no say and have been forced to live this way for atleast a year from the way this article reads.

OK so explain to me... how is it, if I leave my dog in a parked car in a parking lot on any given day it would be considered abuse.. even with windows open, on cloudy days it can get too hot.. but it is ok for these cats to be in a truck 24/7? Why?

this cats has feelings too like human also, they need immediately attention.needs a loving home. this is abused and abondoned! free the cats and give them long lives...

FREE THE CATS!!!

To everyone, I just wanted to advise that we are dealing with this situation. Our other animal control officer just contacted the owner. Homes have been found for 2 cats and he has 24 hours to find homes or better living conditions for the other 3

This person should be brought up upon animal cruelty charges.

Lpalumbo: see if you can confirm what Karen Manser said in above comment with the police department by calling or visiting them and produce a follow-up story. Thanks.

Every living thing with nerve cells experiences basic feelings: pain, pleasure, pressure, etc., whether it's a cat or Uncle Bubba (oh, jury's out on Uncle Bubba -- too many beers and all his nerve cells are numb). But at least Uncle Bubba can sweat.

No animal or human should have to live in a truck, especially in a 100 or more degree car. it's in humane. get the cats out. if the owner is in the car get him or her out and give them help.

I know the owener of the cats He does make sure thay have food and water At this time he is homeless He is working but not making enough to pay the high cost of rent I am not saying what he is doing is right He should give them to a good home

They must not care for them. It makes you wonder. If they had a kids would they be stuck in the back of the truck too. That is total and pure animal cruelty. Something should be done. Free the cats. There is a lot of people that would care for them.

the cats are not abused! they are all happy and healthy! they are not in the truck anymore and haven't been for awhile now.. why don't you all find something better to do
