The 'serpents vs cat thing...' (Trigger warning, very very upsetting)

Warning, extremely distressing article involving animal murder.

Didn't they post on Wednesday night?

In all seriousness though. What the fuck is wrong with people.

Pet owners warned to 'be vigilant' after rescue home finds resident cat beheaded

Poppy's body was found, but her head is still missing.

I'm not reading the article (thanks for the TW) I saw the post giving cat owners a warning about the returning monsters - wonder if it was that nutter that was actually the monster 🤔

HelloMiss · 29/03/2024 13:43

I'm not reading it either...

But I thought a cat moon was due or something? Thought it was all about that

Yes that was the same day. What a bloody lunatic who did that to the poor cat whether the posted here about it or not

No it’s just a total coincidence. Horrible 😔

The poster on here and the serpent thing is a long standing troll, who also had some issues with the water supply and water bison.
I'm not clear if it's the same person as the m&S troll or if they were just concomitant.

This story is horrible but I don't very much the two are connected

What’s the relevance of the serpent, please? I don’t want to read the article 😢

Someone on Wednesday night posted about keeping tour cats inside as serpents/monsters were coming to kill cats that night.

What a terrible thing to have happened. Sorry, but what kind of cat rescue lets their cats out to free roam?

You have a very good point

We had cat murders a few years ago
Local police figured it was foxes.

Yet to find a fox that would behead a cat and leave its body on its doorstep (as happened a few times with the psycho cat killer)

PlumpHobbit · 29/03/2024 18:56

Absolute fucking sickos - on the jury TV experiment they did they were asking people what would be considered reasonable for someone to do in a situation and if you could murder someone

If someone did that to my cat and I either caught them in the act, or found them after? Well....

Sick fucks like this are one of the many reasons I have house cats and would never have an outdoor cat again

It sounds like the Croydon cat killer's MO, hope whoever is responsible is found. Needs to be a greater sentence for animal cruelty

I find it odd they never caught anyone. I had to catch some tiny 4 week kittens once they put up such a fight i was scratched and bitten surely someone repeatedly hurting cats would have got injured ??
