“The neighborhood has gone crazy over this thing,” one resident says. “I almost sold my house and left at one point.”
The first cat to go missing on North 30th Road in Hollywood, Florida, was a 3-year-old orange tabby named Toby.
“This neighborhood used to be a sanctuary for cats. Now it’s their worst nightmare,” Richard Lothian, who lives six houses away from Capozzi, told The Daily Beast. “The worst part is not knowing where the cats went and if they are still alive.” “We would hope that a neighborly dispute over cats would never result in beloved community pets ‘disappearing,’” Emily Wood, the director of Broward County Animal Care and Adoption Center, said. “We encourage people to be good neighbors and discuss their concerns if a cat wanders on their property.”
“I live in Hollywood, which is full of drug-dealers, prostitutes, and cat-hoarders,” Capozzi said. “These stray cats damage property and landscape, and disrupt household[s].”Lothian admits that he had his eye on Capozzi long before his rescue cat Toby went missing. Capozzi lives toward the end of the block in a yellow one-story house with a screen door covered with signs that read “We don’t call 911. Violators will be shot” and “Smile! You’re on camera.” But Lothian said he didn’t think twice about knocking on his neighbor’s door to bring Quinny home and was surprised by Capozzi’s reaction.
The accusation quickly spiraled into the infamous recorded confrontation. According to Capozzi, the conversation lasted about 30 minutes, in which he told his neighbors that he could never hurt an animal but complained that their neighborhood was overrun with felines. “The neighborhood has gone crazy over this thing,” he said. “I almost sold my house and left at one point.”
“Control your cats and this all goes away,” Rodriquez added. “Instead, they are presenting him in a very bad light. What they are going to do is inciting violence against David.”
