Australian woman jailed for being an extreme hoarder
Officers had to use breathing equipment to enter this home.
No! I can't believe what I am looking at!
A 69-year-old woman from Australia has been jailed for being the worst hoarder ever after pleading guilty to charges of animal cruelty. She actually hoarded over 43 cats and 31 dogs in her home.

The strangest thing happened while watching this disturbingly unhygienic footage.
As the clip played, it was as though I could smell the state of the place. For a brief second I could smell cat urine and litter. Weird, I know!
These images are so hectic and the living conditions were so appalling that animal welfare officers were forced to use breathing equipment in order to enter the space.
I love a person who shows kindness to animals, but this is taking it too far. Every pair of lungs in these four walls would be under huge stress.

All 43 cats were euthanised by the RSPCA after suffering severe psychological damage, while many of the dogs also had to be put down. The other animals, after intense rehab, have been placed in other homes.
The woman will now only be allowed to own one dog for the next five years.
