A man has been arrested in connection to 28 dead cats found in a Bohemia home over the weekend, according to the Suffolk County Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals.

In addition to the 28 dead cats found in the home, there were also 61 live adult cats and eight kittens.

All animals have been surrendered to the Islip Animal Shelter.

The house where the cats were found was deemed inhabitable.
