Anitt pleaded guilty to causing unnecessary suffering to the cat left injured.

The court heard that Anitt made the trap from wire because he didn’t like neighbours’ cats coming into his garden.

On this occasion, he had set the trap and then gone away for the weekend.

Anitt set up a makeshift trap to catch his neighbour’s pet cat . The cat, Jeremy, was found in a distressed state 12 hours later

A cat named Jeremy then became caught in the snare and remained trapped for 12 hours.

He was rescued after his horrified owners went looking for him and found him wrapped in wire and suspended off the ground. He was bleeding and suffered a foot injury during the ordeal.

Investigating RSPCA inspector Phil Lewis said: “Poor Jeremy had got caught around his torso and the more he tried to free himself, the tighter the snare got around him. He simply wasn’t able to get free.

“For over 12 hours Jeremy struggled and by the time he was found by his worried owners, he was clearly in a lot of distress. His owners managed to free him and took him to a vet, where thankfully he was not too seriously injured. He has made a full recovery, but he could have very easily not have been that lucky. The snare could have caught him around his neck, strangling him to death.

“Snare traps are horrible things and can cause a lot of damage to any animal which comes across it. Unfortunately for Anitt he discovered this because his homemade trap injured an innocent animal.”

Sentencing: ordered to pay a total of £706. Disqualified from keeping animals for 10 years (expires September 2027).
