A WOMAN has appeared in court charged with poisoning her neighbour’s cat.
Brenda Burton, 67, of Eason Road, York, appeared before York and Selby Magistrates’ Court on Thursday.
She denied a charge of administering rat poison to her neighbour’s cat on May 29, and with causing unnecessary suffering to the pet. The court heard she allegedly combined the poison with fish and left it in a location accessible to the cat.
A trial will take place in November.
