'UK Cat Killer victims' - inside stories of feline pets taken too soon by 'monster'

A notorious cat killer that's mutilated "hundreds" of families' beloved felines is still on the loose, claims the charity that worked on a major three-year investigation.

The UK Cat Killer - who was previously known as the Croydon Cat Killer, until cases started appearing across the country - drew international attention after a spate of acute mutilations with similar characteristics.

Cats would be found decapitated with their tails cut off. Both cuts would be incredibly clean, and there would be no blood present. Some time later - even a few days later - the head or tail would reappear in the exact same location to where the body was found. Hundreds of cases were reported in just three years, from 2015.
