Book ‘er

The Bay City News/SF Chronicle are reporting that the Petaluma ‘cat lady’ has been collared.

A suspected cat hoarder wanted for allegedly jumping bail in a Sonoma County felony animal cruelty case was in a San Francisco jail cell today.

Officers arrested Marilyn Barletta, 64, at a Fisherman’s Wharf hotel Monday night, police spokesman Dewayne Tully said.

Barletta is charged with felony animal cruelty for allegedly keeping 202 cats — some of them dead — in filthy conditions at her Petaluma home two years ago.

This woman is obviously sick–I hope she gets the mental help she needs. I also hope she is enjoined from ever again owning a cat.
