My cat got killed last night!!!!?

I woke up this morning and collected the morning paper off the paper boy only to find my darling charlie on my door step dead!! How to i go about finding out what happened to him as i think that some kids had been tormenting him as they have been hanging around drinking and destroying out estate for months now and i know that they tried to hurt him a few weeks ago!!
I feel so lost without my darling Charlie.

Answers:
How devestating!!!! HUGS TO YOU!! you can take him to the vet and have him tested for possible abuse and drugs/alcohol. Let the vet know the truth of the situation and then listen to neighborhood talk to find out who did it and sue them for damage to private property, animal cruelty( ASPCA would actually charge them and they would have to pay for it!) and any thing else you can. Let me at them, They would never touch another animal ever again!! HUGS TO YOU !!
So sad
I am so very sorry for you.it hurts a lot to loose something loved.
so wat r u expecting from here ??
I'm sorry to hear that
First file a police report. you know they did something to him before. maybe they can put some pressure on the kids to tell what happened "IF" they had anything to do with it, and why would someone put him on your front porch.?
i don't really know how to help, but i wanted to say i am so very sorry! i know how it feels to lose a cat that is very special to you. as far as what happened to him, try calling your cat's vet and ask him.
Bless your heart! I know how painful it is to lose a pet. I would hope that he died quickly and was not tormented. Hang in there!
this is why the animal shelters tell you to keep cats inside, come get one of the 6 strays living outside our house, brown tiger, brown and white, black and white, light grey, adult brown tiger daddy, adult brown and white mom with beautiful huge eyes, or better yet take the whole bunch.
the vets can perform an autopsy on him to find out how he died if you speak to the vets im sure they will help, tho its not a very pleasent thing im sorry
Awwww. Poor kitty. Sorry to hear about the loss of your beloved pet.
Take him to a vet and have a postmortem done.
Sorry to hear about your cat. me and my fiancee have 2 cats and are getting a kitten in a weeks time. You could take it to the vets and just ask them to have a look to make sure there is no obvious signs of foul play. I hope there wasn't , but if there was then you cant prove it was the kids so if you did confront them you may make things worse for yourself. they may start harassing you.
I am SO sorry for you. I know what it is like to lose a beloved pet. They are members of the family and the grieving process is just as intense as if you'd lost a parent or sibling.

I would go the police though. Even if they can't catch the culprits, they would want to be able to log the offence and maybe be able to do something about it in the future. This won't help you I know, but you might be helping others at a future date.

Now go and have a good cry and perhaps a little funeral in the garden. I shall be thinking of you all day.
you could pay for a post Morten seriously at the vets but its expensive and you still wouldn't have the prove if he died of suspect causes who did it.
I'm sorry to hear about it i have lost cats and cryed everytime little bundles of fluff become part of our familys don't they.
Oh how horrible for you. I am so sorry. If you think it was killed (blood or cuts on the body) you should make a police report. But I don't really think they can do anything.

Some people say buy another cat to get over Charlie, but when my darling kim died, I could never ever replace her. She was a one and only!

Sorry for your sorrow.
Take him to the vet and have an autopsy done.

If you ever decide to get another cat don't let him out!!
Sorry for your lost , what you can do is call your vet and ask for then to do an autopsy , I don't know if it is too late but call and ask if this is the route you wish to go it can be expensive, again I am sorry for your loss
Sorry to hear about Charlie. Take Charlie to your vet, s/he will be able to tell you what happened. If you don't have a rgular, I expect any vet will help
get an autopsy,,,, this way you'll know for sure what was the cause.
Just wanted to let you know how sorry I am. I can imagine how painful it would be to lose someone you love especially if his death wasn't an accident. I agree with the above posters who suggested taking him to the vet to determine the cause of death and calling the police to make a report. I suggest first going to the vet and then going to the police depending on if the vet thinks he was deliberately killed (murdered?) I want you to know that I wish you the best, and I sincerely hope if the neighborhood kids were involved in this, that they are punished.
Watch CSI, you might pick up a few tips from that.
I'm sorry about the loss of your cat, that's really sad. Call your vet and ask what options you have. At the very least you could file a report with the police and they can charge the kids with animal cruelty. Although it might be difficult for you to prove who did it. But even if the cops talk to them it might put a good scare into them, small consolation though. If you ever get another cat, please keep him inside.
That's awful! Poor Charlie and poor you. Make sure you give him a proper send off.
sorry to hear that I would make very sure that you keep a close eye on your dog.......

to find out what he died of would require a vet to check him over and that will cost you, unless you actually saw them do anything to your cat last night then the police are really not going to do much to be honest if they wont move along a group of kids drinking under age and ruining the area they are hardly likely to come sirens blaring for a dead cat, I am taking it that you live in the UK and unless the law has changed then if you run a cat over then you dont even have to stop, due to the feral laws etc etc, so maybe she got hit by a car roaming around and dragged herself back home.....
You can have an autopsy done, though that is quite expensive. Best to bury him and let him rest in peace, next kitty you get please make him an inside kitty.
so so sorry about that. I really hope he didnt suffer. but the only way to know is if you take him to your vet and let him/her take an Autopsy.
I have two cats myself and if anything would happen to them, i d be crushed.
So good luck in finding out. And im sure that no other cat will replace him but there are many more homeless ones out there (even ones that stay inside,just to be safe) that just want to be loved.
sorry. very upsetting for you.
all i can suggest is you ring the rspca and tell them your suspicions it is up to them in torment Cases to gain the evidence to prosecute.
maybe they could tell from charlies body.
sorry.
;-)
Im sorry to hear about your cat. I hope you find out waht happened
Awww. That's sad.
He probably just died hon. Don't go looking to blame anyone, that'll torment you even more.
Give him a nice burial and go and buy yourself a beautiful photo frame and put his picture in. Or paint one of him.
At least he came home. His haven.
Sniff.

Bless you. Finding out what happened will be awfully painful and stay with you forever. Work out if that is what you really want, you made his life here good for him, I would focus on that fact and let go.
get an autopsy.
