The detail that best supports the fact that "The Catnapper" is a mystery is:

Cara and Wesley do not know who has taken the cats.

This detail directly relates to the core element of mystery, which involves an unknown element or a crime (in this case, the disappearance of the cats) that the characters need to investigate or solve.
