A WOMAN accused of squatting at a filthy Diggers Rest home before leaving behind 53 unwanted pets says she was not responsible for the squalor.
She says other people used the property as a dumping ground for animals and the house was vandalised after she left.
Animal rescue volunteers recovered 30 cats, six dogs, 15 guinea pigs, a goose and a rabbit from the derelict property after the woman and her two teenage children moved out.
It is believed more than 100 animals were housed on the property at one stage.
The woman has now contacted Leader to say reports that she was living in squalor with her two children were false.
