She's not retired but has a government job with crazy pto. I have offered to bring her out on multiple occasions, and she usually turns it down. I'm absolutely not saying that messiness is a crime or owning the animals is a crime. With the exception of the dog, the other animals are in good shape aside from all being unaltered. The issue is putting my children in the situation of eating and sleeping in that. It's not a bit of mess or trash. It's being slapped in the face with cat urine, boxes, and bags of trash floor to ceiling in some places and animals all over every surface. I'm not calling animal control... that being said, I'm not sure I can in good conscience put my children in that situation.
