Authorities investigate Furget Me Not Purebred Cat Rescue after reported seizure of hundreds of cats and animal remains

Authorities executed search warrants at properties associated with Furget Me Not Purebred Cat Rescue as part of an animal-welfare investigation. The Inland Valley Humane Society and SPCA said officers removed 405 cats, including some described as malnourished, and recovered 119 cremated animal remains from locations in Claremont and Upland. The existence of an investigation does not establish criminal or civil liability.
