    Investigators serving a search warrant for child pornography at a home near Greenacres on Wednesday made a shocking discovery — at least 50 dead cats stashed away in four freezers.

    Animal investigators, called to the scene at 7:30 a.m., also seized about 30 to 35 live cats, according to Capt. Dave Walesky, a spokesman for Palm Beach County Animal Care and Control.

    Some of those cats were suffering from respiratory infections and other ailments, he said.

    "The living conditions were not acceptable for the animals," said Walesky, indicating that investigators seized the cats because their caregiver had been jailed, but also because the animals appeared to be showing signs of neglect.

    In the early afternoon, neighbors gathered outside the home, in the 5900 block of Ithaca Circle West near Greenacres, and watched as live cats in cages and frozen cat carcasses in garbage bags were carried out one by one.
