More Than 130 Cats Found During Meth Bust In Louisiana

According to KTLA, Lafourche Parish deputies arrested Sandy Chauvin on February 1st for animal cruelty and drug charges. She then posted bond for $40,000. Just twelve days later the deputies drug busted her home after her son, Nicholas Chauvin, was arrested for distribution of methamphetamine.

The deputies found items notorious for manufacturing methamphetamine. They also arrested Sandy's other son, Christian Chauvin, for drug charges.

Sheriff Craig Webre said his deputies found more than 130 cats when they were sent to a residence last month, WGNO reported. They also found seven dead cats and describe the living conditions as “very poor” with “a large amount of fecal matter” throughout the residence. -CNN WIRE
