Summary
In South London, England, a serial killer appears to be on the loose. Victims have been cruelly slain, bodies are piling high and fear grips the community. But the victims aren’t humans - they’re domestic cats, cute little kitties!
The killings spark a relentless investigation by animal rescue group SNARL, led by the formidable Boudicca Rising, her partner Tony and rock musician Rob. Acclaimed journalist Nancy Miller - who helped track down the infamous Golden State Killer - journeys from the US to help the amateur sleuths crack the case. As ever more victims emerge, the police reluctantly get involved, but doubts about the killer’s existence persist. When the attacks spread beyond London, fear and tension rise, leaving investigators and the public questioning who - or what - is really behind the crimes. And time is running out to solve the mystery with fears growing the killer could ‘species jump’– literally escalate from slaying cats to murdering humans.
Follow Nancy in the hunt for the so-called Croydon Cat Killer in this gripping podcast, which weaves together elements of true crime, a murder mystery, a love story and obsession.
From award winning film and TV production company Tucker Tooley Entertainment.

The over sensationalist delivery
I disliked the way each episode ended with ‘click bait’ style dramatic cliff hanger. The fact absolutely nothing happened in the story.

Very Good
I thought this was an intriguing story, lots of twists and turns, not much evidence leading to doubt's bout if there even was a killer, sort of mystery I enjoy.

Someone out there knows the truth
Very well produced podcast. A great retelling of the hunt for the person behind these crimes. This is not the end of this story.

Very well researched & presented
Enjoyed almost every aspect of this thorough investigation bar the ending. It felt a tiny bit rushed to me. But I gave it 5x all around because it is a well researched documentary that highlighting many, hidden aspects of the story. Cannot commend enough the research and recording that must have gone into this. Very well presented. I shall look out for other podcasts from the same team.

Worth a listen
Growing up in Bromley, I had heard of the Croydon Cat Killer so it was interesting to hear more about it.
I would definitely say that it's worth a listen.

Would have been better if shorter.
A good example of how to squeeze an hour or two of documentary material into a five hour audiobook. I felt I was picking out nuggets of Interest from swathes of build up, repetition, red herrings and irrelevant material. I was interested to hear the story, as I know Croydon well and have cat owning friends and family there. I am curious to know where the "quaint" areas of are 'though !

I don’t think there was any point to this
This was just a bunch of nothing. The reporter sounded like she was looking down at some of the people (I hate smoking too but doesn’t mean people that do are less than). This felt mainly about someone investing a group dynamic and their relationships than a possible cat killer. Also a lot of reminiscing about her role in the golden state killer case. The mocking of the English accent was a little entertaining though (I am English btw)

Too long
Had high hopes. Story could have been told in half the time. Hearing about individuals personal lives didn’t add anything for me.
