"Basically it's like Planet of the Cats. There must've been 500 of them -- all living in harmony."
For anyone who lives with the constant nuisance of stray cats (and the deposits they leave around your flower beds), but doesn't have the stomach for feline euthanasia, this is your patron saint. Lynea Lattanzio lives on six acres about four hours north of Los Angeles, and uses her land to run a no cage, no kill cat sanctuary.
The hundreds of cats she's saved from animal shelters have free range of the property and the house -- there's 10 feeding stations set up around the grounds, and dog/cat doors at the front and back of the five-bedroom abode so anyone on four legs can come and go as they please.
Since 1992, when Lattanzio opened her shelter, she estimates caring for over 16,000 cats.
Is it a little...odd? Sure. But just be thankful that they're not using your yard as a litter box (and that none of that feces is running off into the sewers system and infiltrating the water supply -- yum).
