Ten Persian cats rescued from a hoarding situation in western Michigan were brought to Bingo Pet Salon in downtown Royal Oak for baths and grooming Monday afternoon. Thirty-one cats in all were rescued two weeks ago on the west side of the state. They all were treated, received shots, were spayed or neutered and shaved.
