Woman 'microwaved kitten to death'

A woman microwaved a 10-week-old kitten to death in revenge after its owner reported her abusive partner to the police, a court in Britain heard today.

Mother-of-two Gina Robins, 30, put the family pet in the oven after using it to warm food for her 18-month-old son Oliver while at the home of its owner, Sarah Knutton, days after her then friend had reported an incident involving Robins’ partner outside the same house.
