They go blind from a nutritional deficit which doesn't happen quickly. When cats live in those conditions that they often become wild and hide from humans which might have been the case but I just can't imagine her daughter not realizing there were so many cats in the house.
The chances of someone going from 8 cats to 55 that are in poor health in the matter of a few months is highly unlikely, imvho.
