Sussex Police officers want to speak to the man in the picture above after the body of a cat was found in Lancing.
A local resident discovered the body at around 8.30am on Tuesday, November 2, on the driveway of a derelict building in Grand Avenue.
The man was captured on CCTV on the property of the cat's owners and police believe he may have information that can help their investigation.
He is described as a white man in his late thirties, of a broad build and with a receding hairline. He was wearing a grey t-shirt with a light-coloured jumper over his shoulder, blue jeans and blue trainers.
Inspector Chris Smith, of Worthing Police Station, said: “We understand the effect disturbing incidents such as these have not only on other pet owners, but on the wider community. Thankfully these reports are extremely rare and our investigations indicate this is an isolated incident.
“Please be assured that we are conducting a full and thorough enquiry and our officers would like to speak to the man pictured as a matter of urgency.
