The so-called Croydon Cat Killer is believed to have struck three times in south east London and north Kent in the last week.
Two rabbits and a cat have were found mutilated since last Monday night, January 8 - incidents attributed to the sick animal serial killer .
South Norwood Animal Rescue and Liberty, an organisation investigating the cat killer, told News Shopper the attacks were most likely linked.
The first happened on Monday, January 8, involving a rabbit which was found mutilated in a garden in Dartford in the early evening.
The second attack was on Saturday, January 13, where a mutilated cat was found in Belvedere.
SNARL said police attended a vet's surgery and they have confirmed it is most likely linked to the notorious killer.
A second animal - the third in a week - was also found in Woolwich on Saturday.
This victim was another rabbit was found mutilated, and after it was taken to the vets, SNARL think it is another victim of the cat killer.
A £10,000 reward has been stumped up to find the believed murderer, who is also being investigated by the Metropolitan Police.
Up to 400 animals are being linked to the so-called cat killer, who is also known as both the UK and the M25 Animal Killer.
