Several cats have been found dead over the past couple of weeks in the Spanish Fort Estates neighborhood, raising alarms among pet owners and prompting a police investigation.

“If it rains, he’s always on our back porch,” she told FOX10 News. “He has access to come in the house anytime he wants. So if it’s raining, he does not like to be out. He does not like to be wet. So the fact that we couldn’t find him when it was wet outside was very concerning.” Spanish Fort Police Chief John Barber said the department did not receive a formal report but began investigating because of the social media chatter.
“Their opinion on the pictures that we sent him were that it was a bird of prey that actually caused that,” he said. “And so, you know, that was good for us to hear that. Now one thing I think we can clearly establish talking to everybody is that there are a number of cats that have been killed in a very short period of time in the Estates.”
Monde Donaldson, who has lived in the neighborhood for 30 years, said she saw a dead cat a couple of weeks ago less than two blocks from her home.
