The serial cat killer(s) in Thurston County, Washington has killed 11 cats now (as of 8/23/18), hideously mutilated them, then left them on display in parks, yards & even church grounds. Thurston County Animal Control Officer Erika Johnson says they strike between 11 pm & 6 am, different areas each time, making it hard to catch them. She urges everyone to keep their cats inside at night, remain diligent & report anything suspicious to 911. If you can safely do so, take photos of suspicious individuals for police review. Many neighborhoods are forming watch groups, with shifts patrolling on foot each night. A Sheriff's Office Major Crimes detective was assigned to these cases Thursday, August 24, 2018. 

The reward for information has increased to $30,000. If you know anything, call (360) 352-2510, citizens can help resolve these horrible crimes, catch & stop this killer!
