A 59-year-old Wilda Davis was arrested and charged with animal cruelty July 12 after sheriff's deputies discovered 13 dogs, 11 cats and several birds living in a house with 6 inches of feces and urine on the floor.
Two Seminole County sheriff's deputies responded to a complaint of animal cruelty and When the pair walked up to the house, they noticed "seepage of urine" running out the front door, according to a sheriff's department report.
When the officers entered Wilda Davis' home, they found the dogs and birds inside laying or walking on a floor covered with their own urine and feces.
There was no fresh water or food inside the home and several dogs had "green matter" oozing from their eyes. The food left out for the animals was covered in maggots and food moths.
Also, there were old and new bites on several of the dogs with no apparent medical attention.
Davis was reportedly given 10 days to clean up the house. When officers noticed that the conditions at the woman's house had not changed, she was arrested Monday and the animals were confiscated. Neighborhood MapFor more information about the Interactive Animal Cruelty Maps, see the map notes.
