Medical supplies, food and bedding are needed for over 35 animals seized in an animal control raid May 29 at a Plattsmouth rental home.

One dog, three ferrets and more than 20 cats remain at Plattsmouth Animal Shelter from the seizure. Eleven had to be put down Friday night due to their poor health from malnutrition, infections and other diseases.

Those remaining will need medical care to make them healthy, said Plattsmouth Animal Control Officer Sue Baker.

"Most are without proper nutrition. Most have ear mites and poor, dry and flaky coats," Baker said.

Three of the felines seized had litters, with one delivering while being transported from the rental home, 613 Second Ave., to the shelter.

The kittens are in need of food with a high nutrition content. Eukanuba or Science Diet are good brands to buy.

"Almost all are starting to show signs of upper respiratory infections," Baker said.

Antibiotics, worming medications, coccidia treatments, frontline flea treatments, ear mite treatments and terramycin oilments top the list of needs at the shelter.

"We’re going to need a lot of medicine," she said.

Old towels and bedding, however, would be appreciated as well, due to the large number of animals at the shelter at this time, Baker said.

"We thought we had plenty, but when these came in, they all seemed to get used up very fast," Baker said.

Laundry detergent is also needed to wash the bedding.

Used or new, ferret toys, cat toys and even cat trees would improve the conditions for the animals.

Used or new, ferret toys, cat toys and even cat trees would improve the conditions for the animals.

"There are lots of kittens that would love another cat tree," Baker said.

Items don’t necessarily have to be brand new. Used cat trees or toys, ferret cages or even a partially used bottle of clothes detergent would be helpful.

Monetary donations will be used to buy medical treatments and food.

Anyone wishing to donate may send funds to Department of Humane, 333 Main Street, Plattsmouth, NE, 68048.

Donations may also be dropped off at Plattsmouth City Hall, 136 N. Fifth St., downtown Plattsmouth, from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday.

People who are unable to make a donation during the above hours, can call 805-8701 to arrange a time with Baker or leave them at 209 S. Ninth Street, Plattsmouth.
