EDITOR – We seem to have a certain individual in the Winklespruit/Illovo area who apparently takes it upon himself to remove other people’s property.
A domestic cat is someone’s ‘property’, so if you remove it without permission, that is theft. Who should know that better than him?
Feral cats, strays, lost or abandoned cats – any cat that irritates him or crosses his path, he decides to remove himself, which is fine, but don’t dump them all over the South Coast if there is an SPCA on your doorstep. Or be cruel to them.
I’ve asked a few people to come forward about this man and some of the information was absolutely disgusting.
Apparently he’s even trapped them in, if I understood correctly, in pipes, or drains, closes them up so they can’t get out, so they suffocate.
People around him see what he’s up to and by the sounds of things, he’s not too shy about it either so in other words he’s often ‘let the cat out the bag’.
I wonder how many people in and around the Winkle/Illovo area, near the old sugar mill, once had a cat that never returned?
