Animal cruelty investigators in Roxbury, N.J., are seeking information leading to the arrest and conviction of the person responsible for drowning a cat in an area pond last month. The Humane Society of the United States is offering a reward of up to $2,500 for such information.
On December 20, a parks and recreation worker found a bag floating in a pond in Roxbury. When he removed the bag from the pond, he discovered the body of a male cat, approximately 7 years old. The condition of the bag leads animal cruelty investigators to believe the cat tried to free himself before drowning.
If you have any information about this incident, contact Roxbury Animal Cruelty Investigator Tara Pellegrino at (973) 584-4372.
