I knew a hoarder. A lady I used to work for a few years ago. Her house was filled to bursting with items she had collected. In the rooms of her house, there were 'internal walls' built from the cardboard boxes filled with 'things'. Hardly any light got in, and to move about the rooms, I had to walk through tunnels and corridors built from these boxes.
Gradually I got her to sort it all out and to give some things to charity etc. and paint thr rooms, and make things nicer. But there still was so much stuff she would not let go of, and these things went into her two huge attics (thank goodness they had steel girders in the floors!) We worked together for about four/five years. My job included her garden. She was a very nice lady. But something must have been seriously wrong....
She showed no interest in having any animals. Thank goodness for that.
