Posters appeared on the streets of Capri last month with the slogan: "Shame on you. We hope you're next, suffering the same agony."
A local animal-rights group, "I Migliori Amici" ("Best Friends") filed a complaint about the poisonings, demanding authorities investigate, ANSA said.
The report did not say how many cats have been poisoned in all.
