Inspector Jason Nadin of Tamworth Police said ..."The people who reported these incidents were genuinely concerned, but it is down to cat conspiracy gossip that has got out of hand."I expect that's what they thought in Rotherham too. At first,
And...why does it seem that these days the police expend far more energy and enthusiasm in trying to 'no crime' something than they do in trying to solve it?

Effective conservation of doughnut calories.
The reason they're "No Criming" it, is because cats disappearing (It's what they do FFS) is not a crime is it? Also 4 cats with suspected "Antifreeze poisoning", SUSPECTED mind, is not in and of itself proof of any wrong doing is it?
A cat is not an "animal" in the eyes of the law.
Pig, dog, sheep, mule, horse, ass, cow.
Other than that, they are vermin.
Therfore "No crime."
Animal cruelty laws are different, but what "cruelty" can be prooved in this case?
"A cat is not an "animal" in the eyes of the law."
In default of anyone else correcting this vacuous proclamation, UK law really does afford protection for cats. What may have confused 'Vixa' is the anomaly that straying cats do not trespass.
As I said, affords protection under "animal cruelty." As far as any other law goes, they are vermin. (I, however, do not agree. Cats are MUCH better than those "dog" things.)
RTA for example, affords NO protection for cats.
"RTA for example, affords NO protection for cats."
UK Road Traffic laws required a driver to notify police in the event of an accident with prescribed livestock.
There was no intention to afford 'protection' to any animal, not least one animal over another.
"The reason they're "No Criming" it, is because cats disappearing (It's what they do FFS) is not a crime is it? "
It might be. Maybe they should look into it? Don't we pay them for that?
XX There was no intention to afford 'protection' to any animal, not least one animal over another. XX
Under the RTA, You will get done for killing any on the list. I call THAT protection.
The theft act is similar.
You can not be done for stealing a cat. (You CAN be done for stealing its collar, if it was wearing one at the time of its theft.)
