The Madison County Sheriff's Office said the disposition hearing to determine the custody of the cats is scheduled for March 28.

The three truckloads of cats found living in filthy, crowded conditions at what was supposed to be a cat sanctuary were being temporarily sheltered in Jacksonville until some of them were healthy enough for adoption.
