Part 1: Mystery of Some 50 Bloodlessly Mutilated Cats, Foxes and Rabbits South of London

— “The animals have been cut with a “sharp object.
... It's difficult as the cats are (often) found at midday and then we
have to work out when they were last seen — the ones with owners that is.”

- Andy Collin, Detective Sergeant, Croydon, U. K. Police Dept.

— “There have been upwards of 50 cats, rabbits and foxes found dead,
apparently murdered, near London over the past couple of years.”

March 6, 2016  London Borough of Croydon region 12 miles south of London, England - There have been some fifty bloodless cat, fox and rabbit mutilations between January 2014 to January 2016, centered around the Borough of Croydon in the county of Surrey a little south of London. Since the end of December 2015, PETA in England has increased a reward for information to convict “cat killers” up to £5,000 ($7,116). The South Norwood Animal Rights and Liberty (SNARL) group near Croydon is appealing for anyone with information or concerns about cat mutilations to contact them: SNARL 07957-830490 or 07961-030064.

Croydon Police Detective Sergeant Andy Collin is leading the cat mutilation investigation and says the cats mutilations are “one of the most bizarre” investigations in his 28-year-career. Recently he told the Croydon Advertiser that the animals have been cut with a “sharp object. ... It's difficult as the cats are (often) found at midday and then we have to work out when they were last seen — the ones with owners that is.”
