Saffron Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 Was the recent news of a fox being found shot through the head with a bolt (amazingly he has been treated and survived), thought to be related? That would explain how a fox or cat could be caught, and why the suspect would want to mutilate it (hide the evidence of the bolt?). They know the specific area in which the fox was shot. Not sure if that helps or hinders the overall investigation, or if it's just another sad mental case. :-/http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-35711506 Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/94082-cat-owners-be-alert/page/8/#findComment-969626 Share on other sites More sharing options...

boswell Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 The situation as a whole isn't funny but that article is (and I say this as someone who is unhealthily obsessed with their cats and quite concerned about their safety now, hence the constant checking of this thread).

I didn't post the link due to it being amusing but because as a pet owner and therefore having an interest in the case, I thought it was an interesting twist.Though I do take the article and the alleged psychic's claims with a large dose of industrial strength salt, we'll be laughing on the other side of our faces if it were to lead to an arrest.

singalto Posted March 11, 2016 Author Share Posted March 11, 2016 Point taken. I guess that as I know the owner of the mutilated cat in Silvester rd, it didn't seem funny at the time. Whatever it takes to catch this person is fine by me.

Jamma Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 I could be wrong but I understand this has been investigated by RSPCA and they believe foxes responsible for most 'attacks'. Would certainly explain the huge number of reported incidents. I understand some media outlets have had this pointed to them but can't resist 'Croydon Cat Killer' headlines.
