The tiny hamster suffered a horrific death at the hands of her evil owner.

When police came to Parkers home in the early hours of February 23, 2010, he admitted putting his pet in the cooker after a drunken row with his girlfriend.

The court heard he told officers: “I didn’t mean to kill her. She was the best hamster I ever had. She was called Suzie.”

Her body was found in a wheelie bin outside the house with burns to her mouth. A post-mortem determined that she had died from exposure to radiation.

In addition to a nine-week custodial sentence, Parker was banned from keeping animals for five years (expired 2015).

While Parker’s landlord, Housing Hartlepool, had threatened to take a hardline against the animal abuser by evicting him, in the end they merely “demoted” his tenancy.

Cockrell stabbed springer spaniel Ozzy repeatedly with a carving knife. A five-inch-deep cut severed the dog’s jugular vein and he bled to death.

Cockrell’s attack on the seven-year-old pet occurred during a family row. Ozzy began barking and growling and jumping up at Cockrell, who then left the room and returned with a large kitchen knife. The dog was stabbed with it and the police and a vet were called.

Despite a desperate effort to save Ozzy, the dog died from his injuries.

Cockrell’s now ex wife said: “My dog bled to death. It was horrendous. I still haven’t been able to get any closure. He’d had a drink and was not a very calm man. I don’t want to talk to him and I don’t want to see him.”

Cockrell, who works as an aviation engineer, claimed to be suffering from post-traumatic stress after fighting in the Falklands War.

Sentence: 18-week prison sentence. Lifetime ban on keeping animals.
