Overview
- Home security footage from Dec. 11 in Lakewood, California, shows a driver delivering a package, then picking up the family’s Siamese cat, Piper, by the scruff and walking away.
- Piper has not been found, and owner Diane Huff-Medina filed a report with the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department’s Lakewood Station on Dec. 15.
- Amazon says it opened an investigation, identified the driver linked to the delivery, and indicated he works through a contractor program but has not responded to outreach.
- The owner says deputies advised the case may not be worked for weeks or months, limiting immediate law-enforcement actions.
- Huff-Medina posted the video on Facebook to seek tips, noting Piper is microchipped but was not wearing a collar at the time.
