$5,000 REWARD – Authorities seek cat torturers in Boulder Creek
PETA OFFERS UP TO $5,000 REWARD FOR HELP IN NABBING CAT TORTURERS
Santa Cruz Authorities Seeking Person or Persons Who Sexually Assaulted Family’s Cat
Boulder Creek, Calif. — On Monday, April 28, residents of Two Bar Road off Highway 9 in Boulder Creek discovered that their cat was bleeding from her rectum. They immediately took her to Boulder Creek Veterinary Hospital, where a veterinarian determined that the cat had been severely traumatized, apparently with a blunt object, in both the anus and vagina. The sexual assault, which, according to officials, may have involved multiple assailants, appears to have occurred sometime between 10 a.m. on Sunday, April 27, and 10 a.m. on Monday, April 28.
The cat survived her ordeal, but police have yet to make any arrests in connection with her assault. That’s whyPETA is offering up to $5,000 for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the person or persons responsible for this violent crime.
“Study after study has confirmed that people who hurt animals often go on to hurt human beings,” says PETA Director Martin Mersereau. “So PETA is urging anyone with information to come forward now, before anyone else gets hurt.”
Anyone with information about this case is encouraged to contact the Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter at 831-454-7303, extension 1.
Reader Comment: Vince Rutherford
Below is a comment from a Boulder Creek Insider Reader. If anyone has info, please comment below or email us.
2 weeks ago an 89 year old resident was hit and killed in front of the drug store when he crossed the street, in broad daylight, in the crosswalk! No story in the paper. After 3 attempts I finally got the Sentinel to do a story, 2 weeks later, but KSBW told me they just can’t get clear up here for news…we are too far away!
Vince Rutherford died and the man who was speeding through town in his big fancy car has not been charged, nor arrested!! This is an outrage! If anyone saw this accident on Feb 7 at about 12:45pm please call the CHP. They say the “investigation will take a few weeks. His widow watched it happen and is suffering so much, but the man is out free. Please call our supervisor, the CHP and whomever else we can get to do something about this horrible accident.
Bear Creek Road – Don’t Mess Around!
