Ewww! Man Adopted Black Cats & Cooked Them For His Friends

He appeared to be the perfect animal lover.

By adopting 15 black cats from shelters, volunteers assumed he was just a kind-hearted gent giving the needy mousers a good home.

But cops now believe the 50-year-old from Brianza in northern Italy was in fact killing and cooking up the cats — before serving them to his friends for dinner.

Il Mattino reports that the suspected murderer took in the cats — which always had to be "meaty" and around 3-years-old — over several months.

By apparently doing a good deed, he managed to avoid calling attention to himself.

But refuge staff became suspicious when the married dad-of-two refused to have routine checkups on his new pets.

Thinking he could be part of a sect targeting black cats for sacrifice, officers from animal rescue charity AIDAA raided his house.

They allegedly found him preparing to kill a cat he was later going to eat.

Il Mattino reports that the man confessed to having eaten other cats in his care.

Arrested and charged with animal abuse, he faces up to 12 months in jail if convicted.
