Thirty-one dead cats and knee-deep trash have been found inside a Wichita home.
The Wichita Eagle reported that authorities made the discovery Saturday after receiving a call from a concerned neighbor.
Sgt. Bruce Watts says police smelled decay upon arriving and initially worried that the woman had died inside the home. Fire officials with respirators responded. Inside, they found that two flea-infested dogs had been feeding on the cats.
Authorities eventually tracked down the 69-year-old woman who lives alone in the house. She said she had been in the hospital and was staying at a friend's house.
The woman has been told to stay out of the home for now. Animal control officers took her dogs.

What I find interesting is we are reporting this story from Wichita in a Salina news area. I wonder why we are not seeing any stories of whats happening in Salina the last few days?? I know there is plenty of crime, issues in our own community they could be reporting. Did the Police chief get tired of us all complaining and tell them not to report the burglaries, thefts etc...? How bout it Todd P, where is all our Salina news?? Please do not say you are not aware of anything happening, you guys have a police scanner, or are you guys simply not monitoring it.

With all the craziness going on in Salina why do we need to know about this story from Wichita?
