While the majority of self-neglect cases do not involve animal hoarding, animal
hoarding cases often accompany cases of human self-neglect. This manual contains
the findings from a forum held in April, 2004, attended by representative
stakeholders (human health and welfare, municipal government, and animal
welfare) regarding the process of effective intervention in animal hoarding
cases. . (Note: This publication is available online at
