A New York man has been charged with animal cruelty after nearly 100 cats — dozens of which were dead — were found in his home last weekend. Article content Article content The 75-year-old man was arrested on May 6 after detectives from the Suffolk County Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SPCA) arrived at his residence in Bohemia, a Long Island community. He faces 18 misdemeanour counts of cruelty to animals and animal neglect, according to Chief of the Suffolk SPCA Roy Gross. Article content Article content View this post on Instagram A post shared by SPCA of Suffolk County, NY (@suffolk_spca) Article content Article content Authorities received a complaint 'of dozens of cats living in poor, squalid conditions as well as many deceased cats in a freezer,' according to a Facebook post by the SPCA. Article content Article content When detectives arrived at the property on May 3, they found the man with the animals that he allegedly neglected while they were in his care. The man and the cats were living amongst 'wet urine, smeared feces, grime, and filth covering the floors, walls, and stairs.'

After conducting an evaluation of the air and structure, fire mashals found high readings of ammonia gas inside the home. The residence was deemed unfit for human occupancy. Article content In the freezer, detectives from the SPCA 'found multiple wrapped items' that contained more than twenty deceased kittens. Article content The New York Post reported that the man lived in the home with his late wife for 30 years, but she died a few weeks ago.

New York man charged after nearly 70 live cats and two dozen dead kittens are found in his home
BOHEMIA, N.Y. (AP) — A suburban New York man has been charged with animal cruelty after authorities say they found nearly 100 cats in his home, including about two dozen dead kittens in a freezer. The man, 75, surrendered Wednesday to detectives with the Suffolk County Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals at a local police precinct, the nonprofit organization said. He was charged with 18 misdemeanor counts of cruelty to animals and animal neglect and ordered to appear in court on May 23. His house, which is about 50 miles (80 kilometers) east of Manhattan, also was condemned as uninhabitable because of overpowering odors of feces and urine, authorities said. The man didn't immediately respond to a Thursday phone message seeking comment. Court records don't list a lawyer for him. Authorities found 69 living cats, many of which had medical ailments including respiratory infections and eye disease, and 28 dead cats at Glantz's home on Saturday while investigating a complaint about dozens of cats living in squalid conditions, the county SPCA said. About two dozen dead kittens were wrapped up in a freezer and the other deceased animals were found in other parts of the house, according to the group. Three of the living cats taken from the home later had to be euthanized because they were in such bad shape, the SPCA said. The surviving cats are being treated at the Islip town animal shelter with the help of the SPCA's mobile animal and surgical hospital. Officials are working to find new homes for them and seeking donations to help pay for their care. More than two dozen will be brought to upstate New York to be made available for adoption, the SPCA said. 'The house was in absolute deplorable condition,' said Roy Gross, chief of the Suffolk County SPCA. 'Feces covered the floors, sprayed on the walls, saturated in urine. The floors were spongy, most likely from the urine. And the ammonia was so extremely high — the ammonia smell from the urine — that the town of Islip fire marshal condemned the house.' It isn't clear why the man had so many cats. Gross said the man's wife died last month and they had lived in the home for more than 30 years. It has been a busy and trying month for the animal welfare organization, which also has been helping to care for dozens of cats that were injured in a cat sanctuary fire in the nearby hamlet of Medford on March 31. The shelter's owner was killed in the blaze.

Composer-producer Michael Brook collaborates with singer Devika for Wisteria
Celebrated for her fusion of Sufi/Indian folk and contemporary music, singer-songwriter Devika recently joined forces with Grammy-nominated composer and producer Michael Brook for their new collaboration 'Wisteria'. The poignant Punjabi ballad, with its universal themes of unrequited love and restlessness, blends Devika's emotive vocal melodies with Michael's timeless production. The collaboration started with Devika listening to a few short guitar sketches from Michael's library. The one that spoke to her was called 'Wisty' — it inspired her to create a melody and lyric. 'The song is a heartfelt expression of love, longing and restlessness. It was a reminder of past bittersweet moments,' says Devika. In her formative years, Devika was obsessed with Night Song, a collaboration between Michael and Ustad Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan. Nominated for the Best Global Music Performance Grammy Award, it was the first album to blend the sounds of traditional Eastern folk singing with new-age Western electronica. Needless to say, she was thrilled when she got the opportunity to meet Michael in his home studio and start working with him. Itwas a fulfilling, interconnected song writing process. Devika would record vocals and send them over to Michael. Her vocals inspired additional compositional development from him, such as adding the violin, guitar and other instruments. Those additions would shape her next iteration. 'It was an open and exploratory process — we weren't trying to restrict ourselves to any specific formula, format or genre; we were just creating something that was meaningful and impactful for both,' she recalls. The collaboration resulted in a soulful Punjabi ballad that blends traditional roots with a contemporary feel. 'It is full of surprises and has unique elements – vocals that transition varying levels of intensity, and a rich palette of music – nylon string guitar, 12-string guitar, bass, cello, violin and string instruments,' adds Devika. Trained in Hindustani classical music, Devika has been collaborating across genres, including with renowned artistes such as Bohemia, Amaan Ali Bangash, Ayaan Ali Bangash, and Mike Klooster of Smash Mouth. Her tracks 'Jab se piya' and 'Mast qalandar'', were submitted for Best Global Music Performance category at the Grammys. The San Francisco-based, New Delhi-born artiste's voice also features on Apple's iMovie App's Bollywood Trailer. Michael has previously collaborated with artistes such as Brian Eno, The Edge, Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, Youssou N'Dour, Hukwe Zawose and The Pogues. His recent production of Chain of Light, consisting of rediscovered recordings from Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, was The Guardian's World Album of The Year for 2024. He has also collaborated on film scores for Into the Wild, The Fighter, Brooklyn and Perks of Being a Wallflower. Michael was first exposed to Indian music through little snippets in songs by The Beatles. 'Both the sounds of the instruments and the element of expression in the transitions between notes, such as gliding, deeply appealed to me. I don't know why,' says Michael. Later, he began trying to add some of those expressive elements to his guitar playing, but was limited by the fact that a guitar doesn't sustain that long. In 1972, he saw musician Bill Nelson play with an EBow that electronically bowed the strings, giving more sustain, which allowed for more focus on the transitions between notes. When Michael ordered one, his order got lost. He decided to create something along similar lines. 'The device I came up with, the Infinite Guitar, worked out very well for me and became an integral part of my music,' he elaborates. The Infinite Guitar has also been immortalised in U2's 'With or Without You'. Devika has some exciting collaborations and concerts in the works. Michael has some concerts for the 40th anniversary of his first solo album, Hybrid. He is also working on music for a new album. 'I also hope that Devika and I can do another collaboration, as this one turned out so well, and the process was enjoyable,' he concludes.
