Police are hunting a prankster active in the Keyham area who repeatedly shaves a family's two pet cats. Berni Evans moved into her new home in Station Road a year ago with her husband, three children and cats Bruiser and Poppy.
But to her horror, both came home with their fur shaved off, apparently by someone using clippers and a razor.
Mrs Evans, 31, said: "They were shaved down to their skin, including the base of the tail.
"It was carefully done, avoiding their intimate areas, but you don't mess with Bruiser, and it would take a couple of people to do it."
The cats were shaved repeatedly over a period of months, mostly on their underparts, their tails and on the insides of their legs, though Bruiser once had the outside of his thigh shaved. The cats' heads and backs were never shaved, nor their whiskers cropped.
The incidents stopped during the summer, but recently started again.
