“A Japanese police probe into the attempted murder of an 82-year-old bedridden woman has reportedly led to an unlikely suspect: a stray cat.

Mayuko Matsumoto's daughter found her bleeding profusely from about 20 cuts to her face on Monday at her home in a mountainous town of Mifune in the Kumamoto Prefecture of southern Japan.

Police launched an attempted murder investigation after seeing the wounds, some of them relatively severe”

Photo isn’t of actual cat they are looking for it’s just a cute cat photo from the article.
 
Lordy, first a bloke falling into a wood chipper and now this. Poor lady.
 
Investigators found no sign of people entering or leaving the house at the time of the suspected attack. They then realised that Matsumoto’s wounds looked like cat scratches. Police turned their attention to the stray cats loitering around Matsumoto’s house, and found traces of what may be human blood on one of them. Police are analysing a blood sample taken from the claw of the cat which might have scratched the victim.

This! This is why I don't trust cats.

I hope Mayuko recovers fully from her wounds and that animal control (do they have in Japan?) will take action to remove the feral cats from the area.
