Title: URGENT WARNING Cat Murders in SE London (Croydon etc)
Post by: Purdy Bear on December 14, 2015, 10:14:09 AM
It's been all over facebook and at last on the news and local papers.  In the South East England,  near Croydon, Bromley, Orpington etc, there is one nasty "£$%^  who is kidnapping cats and doing very gruesome stuff to them.  The said person is taking trophy parts to keep as a treasure of his deeds.

The Police have at last decided to investigate after numerous cats or parts of cats have been found:

On the news this morning owners were warned to keep their cats in doors until the killer is caught.   

The person, I think, is showing classical psychopathic tendencies and may well progress onto people, so needs to be caught ASAP.

I hate stuff like this on FB as it gives others ideas.  There are a lot of impressionable youngsters out there who love to impress their peers.  I agree whoever is doing it is likely to progress to violence against people if he/she hasn't already.

I cannot believe that someone would stoop so low. Next vulnerable people and there are a lot of street people around that area. :(
