Beheading of five cats sparks outrage
Cape Argus
|September 04, 2025
HANOVER Park residents have expressed anger after five cats were found beheaded.
Kashiefa Mohammed, Hanover Park Community Policing Forum (CPF) media officer, said the cats were found in Lansur Road on Tuesday.
“Whoever did that, it is animal cruelty,” she said.
“Why would a person chop off an animal's head?
“An animal is only there for your comfort and to cuddle. An animal doesn't do bad things to you. A cat is just a humble animal.”
