On 10/1/19, this detective spoke with Baltimore County Animal Services Officer Franczkowski about
this investigation. ASO Franczkowski was able to verify that the business titled “Colony Cats of Bird River
and Beyond” was approved by the Internal Revenue Service as a 509a2 charitable organization on
12/12/18. Further, the address listed for “Colony Cats of Bird River and Beyond” was 10322 Bird River Rd,
21220.
ASO Franczkowski reported that Baltimore County Animal Services has received complaints from the
Maryland SPCA in reference to Colony Cats of Bird River and Beyond. The business owner, Pamela
Arrington regularly brings cats to the Maryland SPCA to be checked and diagnosed by veterinarians at the
SPCA. On 9/25/19, a letter was emailed to Baltimore County Animal Services Officer Snyder
detailing concerns that the Maryland SPCA had with the condition of the cats that Pamela Arrington was
bringing in from Colony Cats of Bird River and Beyond. In the letter, the following findings were provided:
· “Over the past few months she has brought us cats/kittens who emit a foul indescribable odor. She
often times has an odor as well. She has also brought us a few kittens who were in incredibly bad
shape and refused our medical services and offer to have these sickly kittens admitted into our
shelter program stating she could offer better care of them.”
· “There have also been separate concerns brought to us about her housing situation for her cats
stating the odor from her home can be smelled from the street.”
· “Between us (SPCA), BARCS and Baltimore County, she has an extraordinary amount of cats she is
a “caretaker” to.”
· “Our major concern is how many cats/kittens she is actually housing on her property. We are
concerned about a potential hoarding situation.”
ASO Franczkowski was able to provide this detective with Baltimore County Animal Control Case # ACCMP
-2019-08021, which was opened after the initial complaint was made. On 9/24/19, ASO Jost and ASO
Snyder responded to 10322 Bird River Rd for a re-check of the location. The officers were met at the side
entrance of the garage by Pam Arrington, who was identified as one of the owners of Colony Cats of Bird
River and Beyond. The following findings were taken from the officer’s report:
· “We entered the garage and we were immediately met with very high levels of cat urine smell and
ammonia.”
· “My eyes and nose immediately started to burn and run and I had trouble speaking while in the
garage.”
· “There was only a small opening that provided ventilation at the peak of the garage and there were
air purifiers running near the door, but they did little to help with the overwhelming smell.”
· “The garage was lined with dog crates, a cat condo, traps and transfer cages, housing cats in each
one (some 2-5 in one cage.)”
· From what I could tell, at least 50% of the cats in there had signs of URI (Upper Respiratory Infection,
runny eyes, runny nose, sneezing, and congestion) and at least 4 appeared to be in critical condition.
· One cage in particular housed a calico cat that had a litter box with at least 6 piles of feces in it. Pam
mentioned that she was in the process of scooping the cages but it was unknown when was the last
time that she had done it prior to our arrival.
· There were some cats that had either no water in their bowls or no bowls at all.
· Pam mentioned that there is one leukemia positive cat that is being housed in the small garage, but
the cat was not housed away from the other cages in the room. There was no way to 100%
quarantine the cat away from the possible contamination of healthier cats in the garage.
· From what Pam mentioned, there appears to be approximately 50-55 cats housed in the garage at
this time, with her home housing all of her personal cats.
· ASO Jost reported “I had a headache that was not present prior to entry that was brought on by the

ammonia levels in the garage and it took time for my nose and eyes to stop burning.
· Most of the cats are kept in dog crates, some by themselves but most have 2 or 3 cats sharing one
crate.
On 10/1/19, this detective spoke with ASO Franczkowski about the conditions that ASO Jost and ASO
Snyder found at 10322 Bird River Rd. ASO Franczkowski explained that although Colony Cats of Bird River
and Beyond had been established as a non-profit organization, the owners had not applied for a Holding
Facility License through Baltimore County. The Holding Facility License is required to house the amount of
animals that Colony Cats of Bird River and Beyond has at their location.
Based on the observations of the Baltimore County Animal Services Officers, it is the finding of this
detective that the health and safety of the animals at “Colony Cats of Bird River and Beyond” had
deteriorated to a point where the animals removal by Baltimore County Animal Services was appropriate.
Search and Seizure Warrant of Garage at 10322 Bird River Rd

Based on the findings of the Animal Services Officers that the sheer number of animals were confined in a
small space and that the animals were currently being subjected to criminal levels of animal cruelty and
neglect, this detective applied for a search and seizure warrant for the location known as 10322 Bird River
Rd.
On 10/3/19, this detective responded to the Essex District Court to make an application for a search and
seizure warrant at 10322 Bird River Rd. District Court Judge Pate issued the search and seizure warrant at
1155hrs for the outbuildings and sheds at the location.
On 10/9/19 at 0920hrs, detectives from the Baltimore County Police Department, members of the Baltimore
County Fire Department and Officers/Veterinarians from Baltimore County Animal Services responded to
10322 Bird River Rd to execute the search warrant.
Present for the search and seizure warrant execution were the following personnel:
· Sergeant Gonzalez #4055
· Detective Koller #4830
· Detective Markel #5175
· Detective Nesbitt #3715
· Detective Podgurski #4948
· Detective Gensel #4982
· Officer Moroz #5822
· ASO Franczkowski
· ASO Jost
· ASO Snyder
· ASO Michaels
· Dr. Andrulis (BCAS)
· Several members of BCoFD HAZMAT, Station 14
Upon arrival, this detective attempted to locate a homeowner by knocking on all available doors to the
residence with negative results for an answer. While knocking on the rear door to the location, which
appeared to be the only manner of egress into the home, this detective observed large piles of trash and
debris scattered on the rear and side deck to the location. This detective was able to smell a pungent odor
of urine or ammonia coming from the home. As this detective continued to knock on the rear sliding door of
the home, the smell of urine and ammonia became greater, the closer to the location that this detective
Report Type
10/9/2019 09:20 to 10/17/2019 18:00 10/17/2019 18:00
travelled. This detective was unable to see far into the location due to the uncleanly status of the glass door
and area immediately inside the door. This detective was able to walk around the home and observed
several cats sitting at the windows of the home. This detective knocked on several of the windows in an
attempt to locate a homeowner with negative results.
At this point, this detective turned his attention to executing the search and seizure warrant on the sheds
and outbuildings of the property at 10322 Bird River Rd. This detective located a 30 foot by 10 foot garage
that was situated approximately 50 feet behind the residence. While preparing to enter the garage, this
detective was overcome with a strong odor of urine emanating from the shed. The urine and ammonia smell
was so strong that it was decided that this detective would have to suit up in personal protective equipment
to include a respirator to enter the garage. This decision was made based on the ammonia and bacterial
contaminants that were expected to be present in the air inside the garage. Once this detective was
properly equipped, entry was made into the garage via a small side door. Once inside, this detective was
overcome with the smell of urine, even though this detective was wearing a respirator. This detective was
immediately able to observe various sized metal cages that lined the entire walls of the garage. The cages
were stacked 2 high and contained anywhere from 1 to 5 cats. Most of the cages that this detective was
able to observe did not have clean food or water and almost all of the cages had litter boxes that appeared
to contain more feces than kitty litter. There were two small dirty windows on either side of the garage that
let in a minimal amount of sunlight. The garage had working lights, but they were not on when this detective
entered the garage. As this detective and ASO Franczkowski passed several of the cages, the cats confined
inside began to spastically thrash around the cage and climbed up on the cage walls. ASO Franczkowski
advised that the actions of the cats were indicative of animals that were experiencing starvation. After
several minutes inside the garage taking photos and chemical meter readings to ensure the safety of the
persons inside the garage, all personnel had to exit the garage due to the smell and to formulate a plan to
extricate the animals from the garage. This detective, with the assistance from members of the Baltimore
County Fire Department, was able to remove the approximate 30 cages from the garage. Once the cages
were outside, it was determined that there were 76 cats contained within the cages. A veterinarian from
Baltimore County Animal Services was on-site and was able to conduct a brief observation on the cats. It
was determined by the veterinarian that approximately half of the cats were suffering from varying illnesses
to include Conjunctivitis, infections, Leukemia, ulcers, and upper respiratory infections. Once the cats had
been removed from the garage, an additional search was conducted which revealed a white Styrofoam box
that contained a deceased cat. Based on the lack of decomposition, the cat appeared to have died recently
and was placed into the box. The box was not sealed, which would prevent disease from possibly spreading
to the other live cats in the garage. The box was then placed on top of a cage that contained several live
cats.
This detective and ASO Franczkowski responded to a smaller shed that was directly behind the garage that
housed the 76 cats. This shed measured approximately 10 feet by 8 feet and had two barn style doors.
Once the doors were opened, this detective was able to immediately smell the odor of decomposition
coming from several more boxes contained within the shed. Three more white Styrofoam cooler boxes, a
cardboard box and a kitty litter plastic bag were removed from the shed. The containers were easily
identified as vessels that contained decomposing animals due to the foul smell and the presence of a large
amount of flies, gnats and maggots that covered the packages. An examination of the contents of the boxes
and bag revealed seven more deceased animals that appeared to be cats in varying stages of
decomposition. This process took considerably longer because the smell associated with rotting,
decomposing carcasses was keeping the Animal Services Officers and this detective from completing the
inventory tasks quickly.
After several hours, the ASO’s and this detective were able to remove 76 live cats and 15 deceased cats

Search and Seizure Warrant of Residence at 10322 Bird River Rd

This detective and ASO Franczkowski also considered the health and well-being of the remaining animals in
the residence located at 10322 Bird River Rd to be in peril. This finding was based upon the observations
made of the conditions of the home that were present during the execution of the search and seizure

10/9/2019 09:20 to 10/17/2019 18:00 10/17/2019 18:00
floors made it impossible to walk freely throughout the room. This detective was able to observe two crates
on the floor of the bedroom that contained two mixed breed dogs. The cages were surrounded by debris
and did not allow for any type of ventilation to enter the cages. As the Animal Services Officers were
extricating the dogs from the room, they observed several cats crawling through the trash and debris on the
ground and eventually hid under the bed. The Animal Services Officers then lifted up the mattress and box
spring and approximately ten cats were discovered hiding. The ASOs were able to capture most of the cats
in the bedroom; however, there were a few that remained hidden in the trash and debris that could not be
caught. After the cats that were free in the bedroom were captured by the ASOs, they heard the sounds of a
cat coming from a small pet carrier that was lying on the floor. A search of that pet carrier revealed a cat that
was wedged in a pet carrier with a large amount of blankets. The cat appeared to be suffering from some
type of medical condition and there was a foul odor coming from the pet carrier.
This detective continued to assist the ASOs with the documentation and recovery of the animals within the
residence. In a room at the front of the residence that was separated by two double doors, approximately 30
more cats were discovered in cages and running free throughout the room. As was the case with the
previous cats, the conditions that the cats in cages were found in was abysmal. Almost all of the cages had
litter boxes that were overflowing with feces and water and food bowls that were empty or contained fluids
that appeared to be a mixture of urine, food and feces. The entire room smelled heavily of ammonia and
you could see the particulate in the air as the ASOs worked. In another room that was off of this main room,
several cats that appeared to be blind were freely running around the room.
This detective and the ASOs responded upstairs to a loft area that contained approximately 25 cages and
an additional 20 cats. The cages and the cats were kept in conditions that were consistent with what had
been found in the rest of the house. This detective noticed a smaller cage that appeared to be designed for
a small rodent or animal that was on a shelf in the upstairs loft. A closer inspection of that cage revealed
what appeared to be a decomposed small animal that had died a significant time ago. The ASOs advised
that the hair/fur that was observed in the cage with the decomposed animal resembled a Guinea Pig.
Photographs of the decomposed animal and the cage were taken.
It was also discovered that a bird (Cockatiel) was located in a cage in one of the rooms of the residence.
The cage was clean with fresh paper in the bottom of the cage and food and water were present. This is
significant because it demonstrates that the owners of the animals, Cox and Arrington, have the ability and
knowledge to care for animals correctly.

Report Type
10/9/2019 09:20 to 10/17/2019 18:00 10/17/2019 18:00
Veterinarian: Dr. Andrulis
Intake Exam:
Dr. Andrulis examined Briver 74 on October 9, 2019. Briver 74 was estimated to be a 1 year old
female torbie DSH. A microchip number was found. She was noted to have a Purina
body condition score of (2/9) weighing 4.14lbs with a left ear tip. A review of her medical history noted that a
month previously on 9/13/19 “Oceana” ID with the same microchip number was examined at the
MDSPCA and found to be emaciated weighing 4.3lbs with live fleas.
Briver 74 was routinely vaccinated and dewormed. She was tested for FelV/FIV (neg/neg) and treated with
a topical flea preventative. A recheck was performed on 10/23/19 where she was found to have gained a
significant amount of weight. At 6.0lbs her BCS had improved to 4/9.
Disposition:
Briver 74 was admitted to the shelter with evidence of malnutrition and dehydration. She had lost weight
after release from the MDSPCA on 9/13/19. Over a two week period with proper nutrition and sanitary
housing she has gained over a pound of weight (28% weight gain). These facts, along with horrendous
condition that Briver 74 was found in,
prove that she was suffering from neglect at the time she was seized from the garage on Bird River Road.
Briver #145
Approximate 8 year old, spayed female, tortoise shell DSH
Not Microchipped
Intake Exam:
Dr. Andrulis examined Briver 145 on October 18, 2019. Briver 145 had died overnight and was
estimated to be approximately 8 years old. She was noted to have a Purina body condition score of (1/9)
weighing 3.4 lbs. She was found to be extremely underweight with her hip bones and ribs protruding.
Disposition:
Briver 145 was admitted to the shelter with evidence of malnutrition and dehydration. Unfortunately she
passed away as a result of severe malnourishment and lack of care. Based on the level of her emaciation it
can be concluded that her body condition was a result of neglect that took place over a 2-4 week time
period.
Briver #148
Approximate 3 year old, spayed female, black DSH
Not Microchipped
Intake Exam:
Dr. Andrulis examined Briver 148 on October 18, 2019. Briver 148 had died overnight and was
estimated to be approximately 3 years old. She was noted to have a Purina body condition score of (1/9)
weighing 2.5 lbs. She was found to be extremely underweight with her hip bones and ribs protruding and
had copious ocular and nasal crusting indicating a severe upper respiratory infection. .
Disposition:
Briver 148 was admitted to the shelter with evidence of malnutrition and dehydration. Unfortunately she

passed away as a result of severe malnourishment and lack of medical care and treatment for her
respiratory infection. Based on her emaciation her condition was a result of neglect that took place over a 2-
4 week time period.
Findings by this Detective and Animal Services

Many of the cats seized from 10322 Bird River Road were exhibiting symptoms of Feline Upper Respiratory
Infection (URI), additionally 8 cats tested positive for feline Leukemia (FELV), 4 from the garage and 4 from
the home.
URI virus may be shed in saliva or secretions from the nose or eyes. Susceptible cats can get an infection
by direct contact with another infected cat or by environmental exposure. URI is caused by one or more viral
or bacterial agents, usually affecting the nose and throat. Symptoms of URI include sneezing, runny nose,
runny eyes, sores on the tongue, lips, nose or roof of mouth, fever, lack of appetite, decreased energy and
lethargy. It is extremely important that cats with URI’s be housed in clean, low stress areas with access to
adequate food and water to enable them to recover.
Feline Leukemia (FELV) in many cats, results in suppression of the immune system making the cat less
able to defend him/herself against a wide range of infections that would not normally cause problems in
healthy cats. The virus is shed in saliva, nasal secretions, urine, feces, and milk of infected cats. Cats are
exposed to FELV infection through other infected cats, either via prolonged close contact or through bite
wounds. There is no cure for FELV, only management of symptoms, the only sure way to protect cats from
FELV is to prevent their exposure to FELV-infected cats. Symptoms of FELV include loss of appetite,
progressive weight loss, poor coat condition, enlarged lymph nodes, persistent fever, pale gums and other
mucus membranes, infections of the skin, urinary bladder and upper respiratory tract, persistent diarrhea,
and eye conditions. Once a cat has been diagnosed with FELV, careful monitoring of weight, appetite,
activity level, elimination habits, appearance of the mouth and eyes, and behavior is an extremely important
part of managing the disease to ensure a proper quality of life.
Cats that are experiencing stress from environmental factors may be more susceptible to illnesses and
diseases due to their immune system being suppressed. Conditions such as lack of sufficient food and
water, a clean housing area with sufficient space, being housed in close proximity to other cats without
barrier in most cases will cause a cat to become stressed. Because there was no separation between any of
the cages, or separation of the free roaming cats from the caged cats, all of the cats housed in the garage
and house were exposed and susceptible to illnesses and diseases that others might have. Ideally, cats
showing signs of illness should be kept separate from healthy cats to prevent the illness from spreading.
Best practices for limiting exposure is to isolate a new cat from the other cats in your household for at least
1-2 weeks to minimize the risk of transmission of any infectious diseases. Cats that test positive for FELV
should be kept separate from all other cats (sick or healthy) to prevent the spread of the incurable diseases.
Keeping cats together in unsanitary conditions may lead to the spread of other illnesses and diseases such
as Feline Panleukapenia, which is a highly contagious, often fatal, viral disease of cats, this virus is shed in
all bodily secretions such as urine and vomit, and stool.
It is the finding of this detective that the owners of Colony Cats of Bird River and Beyond, Garriott Cox and
Pamela Arrington, are responsible for the following criminal acts of Animal Abuse, Cruelty and Neglect that
were observed by members of the Baltimore County Police Department and Baltimore County Animal
Services during the execution of both search and seizure warrants at 10322 Bird River Road, 21220
(10/9/19 and 10/17/19.)
CR 10-604
Abuse or neglect of animal
(a) A person may not:
Report Type
10/9/2019 09:20 to 10/17/2019 18:00 10/17/2019 18:00
(1) overdrive or overload an animal;
(2) deprive an animal of necessary sustenance;
(3) inflict unnecessary suffering or pain on an animal;
(4) cause, procure, or authorize an act prohibited under item (1), (2), or (3) of this subsection; or
(5) if the person has charge or custody of an animal, as owner or otherwise, unnecessarily fail to provide the
animal with:
i. nutritious food in sufficient quantity;

ii. necessary veterinary care;
iii. proper drink;
iv. proper air;
v. proper space;
vi. proper shelter; or
vii. proper protection from the weather.
The investigation by this detective revealed that Garriott Cox and Pamela Arrington, owners of Colony Cats
of Bird River and Beyond, committed Abuse or Neglect of an Animal by:
· CR10-604(a)(2) - A person may not deprive an animal of necessary sustenance.

During both search and seizure warrants that were executed at 10322 Bird River Rd, 21220, numerous cats
were discovered locked in cages, without food or water. Further, a large amount of cats had recently lost a
significant portion of their weight from the last time they were observed by a veterinarian.
· CR10-604(a)(3) - A person may not inflict unnecessary suffering or pain on an animal.

During both search and seizure warrants that were executed at 10322 Bird River Rd, 21220, the conditions
that were observed could be described as unsanitary and abysmal. In the garage, cats were kept in cages,
sometimes multiple cats to a cage. The cages were littered with feces, vomit and rancid food and water. The
air quality was poor and ventilation was non-existent. In the residence, cats feces was observed on multiple
surfaces and open overflowing litter boxes were sporadically situated throughout the house. A large number
of cats were confined to cages without proper water, food or clean litter boxes. Trash was strewn about in
the bedroom where several cats were found hiding in the debris.
· CR10-604(a)(4) - A person may not cause, procure, or authorize an act prohibited under item
(1), (2), or (3) of this subsection
During both search and seizure warrants that were executed at 10322 Bird River Rd 21220, it was apparent
to this detective that both Garriott Cox and Pamela Arrington were knowledgeable and complicit in allowing
the conditions of the areas where the animals were kept and stored to deteriorate to the levels that were
observed on 10/9/19 and 10/17/19. Further, the both Garriott Cox and Pamela Arrington were
knowledgeable and complicit in the deteriorating health of the animals that they were responsible for.
· CR10-604(a)(5)(i,iii,iv,v,vii) - if the person has charge or custody of an animal, as owner or

otherwise, unnecessarily fail to provide the animal with: nutritious food in sufficient quantity,
proper drink, proper air, proper space and proper shelter.
During both search and seizure warrants that were executed at 10322 Bird River Rd, 21220, numerous cats
were discovered locked in cages, without food or water. In the garage, cats were kept in cages, sometimes
multiple cats to a cage. The cages were littered with feces, urine, vomit and rancid food and water. The air
quality was poor and ventilation was non-existent. In the residence, cat feces was observed on multiple
surfaces and open, overflowing litter boxes were sporadically situated throughout the house. A large
number of cats were confined to cages without proper water, food or clean litter boxes. In some cages, the
Report Type
10/9/2019 09:20 to 10/17/2019 18:00 10/17/2019 18:00
amount of feces, urine and vomit did not permit the animals to have an area to stand or sit without laying in
the feces, vomit or urine. Trash was strewn about in the bedroom where several cats were found hiding in
the debris.
The investigation by this detective revealed that Garriott Cox and Pamela Arrington, owners of Colony Cats
of Bird River and Beyond, committed Aggravated Cruelty to Animals by:
CR 10-606(b)(2)
Aggravated cruelty to animal
· A person may not intentionally cause the torture of an animal to wit: Cats contained in the
garage and residence of 10322 Bird River Road, 21220 and the property of the owners of
Colony Cats of Bird River and Beyond, Garriott Cox and Pamela Arrington.
It is the finding of this detective that the owners of Colony Cats of Bird River and Beyond, Garriott Cox and
Pamela Arrington caused the torture of the above animals by:
Depriving them of proper sustenance

The starvation was so severe that some of the cats had lost several pounds since their last veterinarian
visit, which had just occurred within the last six weeks. Further, once the cats were being properly cared for
at BCAS, they gained significant amounts of weight in a mere two weeks.
Conditions located at the garage and residence

Several of the cats had developed upper respiratory infections that were not present on their previous
veterinarian visits. The lack of ventilation and space between cages suggest that the cats developed these
ailments while suffering, long term, in the conditions that were present.
Euthanization of Briver 38
Briver 38 was found to be kept in such an emaciated state that the animal had to be humanely euthanized
to end its suffering. Due to the fact that this cat was not microchipped, it is unknown how long the cat
suffered in the emaciated state.
It is this detective’s finding that the preceding statements are evidence that several animals suffered grave
injuries and even ultimate death, due to the inactions and conditions that were present at 10322 Bird River
Rd, 21220. Garriott Cox and Pamela Arrington’s actions and a lack of a sanitary, healthy housing situation,
inflicted severe pain and suffering, which satisfies the torture element of Aggravated Cruelty to Animals on
several of the animals on their property.
On 10/3019, this detective completed the initial supplement for this Animal Cruelty Investigation and
submitted it to the Baltimore County States Attorney’s Office for review.
