Police mentioned the physique of a four-year-old male household cat, named Loki, was found on the morning of November 23. The animal died between 11.30pm on November 22 and seven.40am – when he was discovered – in Harbourne Gardens, West End, Hampshire.
Hedge End Police reported on Facebook: “It is believed that Loki the cat had been killed deliberately in an act of malicious cruelty. He was located in a patch of grass to the rear of property, near to the owner’s back gate. He had suffered blunt force trauma and injuries from a sharp bladed instrument (possibly a knife).
“This was not a fox or dog attack. This is a shocking and rare case of animal cruelty in our local community, and extremely devastating for Loki’s owners. They have asked if anyone knows anything about this callous crime, to please contact police.” Anyone with info is suggested to name 101, quoting 44230479696, or submit a report online via the police website.
