SALEM, N.H. - Investigators and health officials discovered a half-dozen dead 
cats and three dead dogs at a Salem home. 
 
Another 18 cats and four dogs, found alive, were removed from the residence 
and handed over to the New Hampshire Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to 
Animals in Stratham. 
Steve Sprowl, the NHSPCA's animal cruelty officer, said Wednesday that the 
group is "doing great." 
A gas company worker checking service at a trailer on the property Friday 
afternoon spotted two dead dogs on the porch. When police and an animal control 
officer went to inspect the animals, they found a third dead dog just inside 
the trailer. 
Police then discovered six dead cats inside a house at the back of the 
property. 
"There was a lot of feces and obviously the dead animals in the house," said 
police Capt. Robert Larsen. Police found the dead cats scattered around the 
house. 
The person living at the trailer is staying with someone else until the home 
is clean enough to live in again, police said. 
Larsen said he expected that investigators would meet with animal control and 
health officials to determine whether they would bring charges.
