The man appeared at Kilmarnock Sheriff Court on Monday, March 29 – however council workers and the accused’s brother then had to visit the property the following evening to rescue a trapped cat. While council chiefs declined to comment on the individual circumstances the Times was told its believed the cat was fine when it was later collected.
