All of the cats appeared to have come from a single location. It appeared that the cats were well cared for prior to their deaths.
Officials have not identified a suspect or suspects in the case. Investigators request that anyone who has information about the dead cats or their owner call animal services at (805) 781-4400 or Crime Stoppers at (805) 549-STOP.
