I found a dead cat on the pavement of our street in Sydenham, with its tail off at the base. The cat was laid centre of the pavement at a 45 degree angle. I put it down to foxes or a dog maybe


This was last year in about September or October I think


I live close to Wells Park

Seabag - please can you tell SNARL about this? Thanks....

I absolutely agree with every word of this.

I thought this had moved on, but as you chipped in, I can only suppose you haven't read the earlier post where mrsilencio gave an otherwise very full description (omitting only IC classification) - that is the weird part - why only leave that one fact out of an otherwise full/decent description which was plainly intended to let us know what that person's appearance was.


Anyway, it's her/his call if he/she wants only to give a partial description - my objection was that the 'argument' advanced to justify it was entirely flawed and illogical. There was actually no need to 'justify' anything with a bogus argument - he/she could simply have said sorry I don't care to do give any more detailed ID description.

No worries - no need for PM. I'm sure we all share the hope the sicko is caught in double quick time. It's likely the publicity will be beneficial - ED must have only a handful (if that) of police officers on patrol at any one time, but if large numbers of the general public are being vigilant when they are out on the streets (or people who know the offender may notice incriminating behaviour), then that must increase the chances of the person responsible being caught.
Surely with the sheer number of incidents the police would be able to find some CCTV footage with the same person popping up again and again. If they actually spent time looking and analysing footage from CCTV cameras near all victims. Especially if criminologists have suggested this sort of crime could potentially progress to "more serious" crimes then surely more should be done by the police to catch them.
They are left in a location which is different to that in which they were taken, so it's not that simple (the police wouldn't have a precise location to check). Also they are not necessarily left where they are to be found at a time close to when they were taken. There's also not that much CCTV in residential streets (not like a main road or high street). I think the best chance of catching him or her must be for someone to be suspicious/see someone they know with gruesome images or remains and to tip off the police, or for a member of the public to see something as its happening or as he/she is planning/hunting for an animal and to dial 999 as requested (not 101).

SNARL says to alert them or the RSPCA,which are now also dealing with this

please stay with the animal until it has been collected....

there have also been reports of foxes & rabbits been victims of these cruel incidents

Cats have been lured with chicken & body parts are usually found at neighbours doors


PLEASE KEEP CATS INSIDE AT NIGHTS

THE LAST ATTEMPT WAS 2 DAYS AGO AT 5.00 IN THE MORNING

    • on a practical level found here these have very positive feedback:   Danny - 07943 673482 joeast 12/09/23 Just had my roof replaced by Danny (mobile 07943 673482) who I would highly recommend. He is honest, clean, reliable and explained the work and sent photos as the work progressed. His initial estimate for costs was detailed and close to the actual price of the job. jamondo 07/12/24 Another recommendation for Danny here!  After carrying out extensive work on our property in 2018, we have constantly had problems  with the newly built roof.  Then followed numerous fixes and bodges by the builders then by other so called 'experts' and professionals' charging extortionate amounts and / or giving guarantees that amounted to nothing.  Lots of 'it could be this and that etc...'  Sadly our tale of woe is not uncommon. After getting a number of people to look at the roof - the consensus was that the whole roof needed redoing (it was clear that by now the roof looked a mess with multiple things done wrong or poorly).  We obtained quotes and decided to go with Danny - his was the most competitive but it was not overriding factor behind why we did.  Danny made clear what the quote covered and where there might be extra work required as he got to it (this was fairly minor). He was easy to get a hold of and responded promptly and he was also happy to offer up refences which I did contact and all were happy to vouch for him. Minor downside was that we had a bit of a wait, but it was worth it.  When work started I was kept updated with progress and photos.  Issues were dealt with, and although I'm not an expert by any means the appearance of the work was top.  Most importantly we are leak free! bonzo 17/05/25 Needed a new rear roof for terrace house in East Dulwich and heard about Danny Denton (07943 673482). Have worked with over 20 builders in the past but this guy was way the best - polite, hard working, honest, professional, informative, highly skilled and above all quoted lower than any of the others who came down to view the job. If you need roofing work I would definitely give him a call. If he's busy working else where I assure you he is well worth waiting for. He got the scaffold up and job finished in no time and kept me informed at every stage. Another roofer (who appears on this forum) gave a quote which was three times higher than Danny's.   #########################################################   Norwood Roofing 07412 000 214 Email Address: [email protected] Website: https://norwoodroofing.co.uk/ Fee163 01/01/26 Another 5 star recommendation for David and Patrick. Got in touch with David last week regarding clearing our gutters and as always he quoted immediately and came out within the week to do the job.  We've used David and Patrick for all our roof work for almost 10 years .   They also did an amazing job for my sister who is based outside the area - she couldn't easily find someone local and they stepped in and did a fantastic job (it was quite a big job).  Can't recommend them highly enough, really personable, always reliable and so easy to work with and consistent, just wouldn't work with anyone one else!  Thanks again David and Patrick. caroline5553 12/01/26 Another recommendation for David and Patrick. David came out the same day we called, had scaffolding up by the weekend and the job done on Monday. Really nice guys, never made me feel uncomfortable, easy to work with and seemed to have done a great job. Thanks, David and Patrick! sheppick 15/12/25 I would also recommend David and Patrick. David quoted immediately, and they came and did the work I needed the following week. They fixed my leaking roof and did a number of other jobs for me that were needed on the roof. Really reliable, turned up on time and very reasonable quote. Super easy to deal with and I would highly recommend.  #################################################################   Which Trusted Trader R Tredget & Son 07905829393 or 07956553852  [email protected] http://www.rtredgetandson.com/ OUR FEATURED WORKS Roofing, plumbing, kitchen installation, building, interior decorating, electrical installation, bathroom installation, exterior decorating, tiling, plastering, landscaping & carpentry 02/08/25 This is the second time R. Tredget & Son have carried out works on our property. Part of the work included the repair of cladding on an end gable that Richard had previously installed but it had since been accidentally damaged by another trades-person. I assumed I'd pay for such repair work, as the damage was no fault of his own, but when we discussed this, Richard was adamant he would not charge! Made a lovely job of the repair too. When you turn your home (or part of it) over to builders it often feels like they've taken over. Not so with Richard, Adam and Harrison. They respect your property and are willing to work with you. They keep you informed at every stage, offering suggestions and alternatives as appropriate and they don't take liberties. We are so glad to have found R. Tredget & Son builders: quality work from reliable, hard-working and courteous folks. 10/10/24 Multiple jobs complete to a high standard We've used Richard for a few years now getting our house complete. He and his team have completely refitted our kitchen, replaced ceilings, built internal and external walls, laid flooring, plastered, decorated, fixed guttering, fit skirting boards; the list goes on! They take pride in their work, and every job we've needed doing, they've always done to a high standard. No job was too big or too small for them, and I've no doubt the quality work they've done has increased the value of our house, so a big thanks again for everything they've done. 17/04/24 A Great Family Run Company This was our first time having works done in a new house so we were understandably nervous! From the first meeting with Richard and Adam we knew that we would be in good hands. Nothing that we wanted done was too much of an issue, even if it was a bit more of a challenge to them (unlike some other quotes we got!). They gave clever suggestions but weren't pushy with it and had good ideas! We had a whole new bathroom installed and then some structural work done around the house. The guys always made sure that they left the house in a clean state at the end of every day, which really made a difference to our standard of living during the works. Richard, Michelle, Adam, and H were trustworthy and communication was perfect throughout. We used some of their guys for boiler/electrics too and they were also great. Would highly recommend taking them on for your works!       
    • Bit of a long-shot, but I dropped my glasses somewhere along my run last night, after taking them off due to the rain. The glasses are Giorgio Armani with grey frames. My running route attached, so they could be anywhere along this route. If you've found them, please get in touch! 07971806292 Many thanks James
    • I'm in the middle of the civil service pension crisis with no pension for 4 months and counting. No access to the much publicised loans either. I have emailed Helen Hayes several times. It took her 6 weeks to contact Capita on my behalf but no follow up, no reply, she didn't attend the Westminster Hall debate about the issue either. Lots of other MPs are speaking and acting on behalf of their constituents but I've had no joy. Has anyone else please? What works to get help from Helen Hayes?
    • Our cat Suki has gone missing from Keston Road near Goose Green. Please let us know if you see her anywhere or can check your sheds and gardens. You can contact us me on 07980308743 or [email protected].  Thanks Chris
