The Hawaiian Humane Society is offering a $2,000 reward for tips leading to an arrest and conviction of the person responsible for shooting cats with a BB gun at the Hawaii Kai Part & Ride.

You can call 356-2249 with tips.

The suspect is a local man, possibly in his 50s, about 5-feet-7-inches tall, 160 pounds wearing a tank top.  He had a large black dog with him.

The Hawaiian Humane Society is reminding residents that poisoning, tormenting, torturing or killing cats is a felony.

The society also urges all cat owners to take the following precautions to protect your cats:

• Keep your cats indoors.  If you let your cats outdoors, supervise them closely and always make sure they wear identification.
  
• All outdoor cats must have a micro chip or collar with identification and be sterilized.
  
• Abandonment or relocating cats that are not your own is a crime and can result in suffering.
