Gail Giustino, 77, allegedly collected cats from her mail route in Stuart; sheriff calls it the worst hoarding case he's seen

The "worst animal hoarding case" a Florida sheriff has ever seen is now expanding as more animals are being recovered.

Some of the rescued animals already have been reunited with owners who said they’d given up hope of ever seeing them again.

Gail Giustino, a 77-year-old mail carrier, was arrested July 20 after authorities found more than 100 animals held in feces-filled cages in her Stuart home. She’d been "collecting cats" she found along her mail route, Martin County Sheriff John Budensiek said.
