PORTLAND — Nearly 120 cats and dogs were seized from a Northeast Portland animal rescue and boarding facility Tuesday, officials say.
Authorities served a search warrant at Woofin Palooza’s 82nd Avenue facility after receiving complaints alleging possible animal abuse or neglect.
The 65 cats and 52 dogs that were seized were taken into the care of Multnomah County Animal Services. Several of them were receiving unspecified treatment Tuesday.
An investigation continues, and the case has been referred to Multnomah County prosecutors.
Woofin Palooza bills itself as an animal rescue, doggie day care and boarding facility that “partners with shelters facing extraordinary challenges” like severe overcrowding.
