Father and daughter duo solve mystery of neighbour cat killer

A man has admitted killing his neighbours’ cats after a father and daughter turned detective and found bowls of poison-laced tuna in his garden.

Tristian Paul Pearson, 44, of Bargoed in South Wales, lured family pets - Luna and Bailey - into consuming the toxic substance ethylene glycol.

The two cats died shortly after the poisonings took place in early September 2021, when within a week of each other they returned home appearing very unwell.

Pearson pleaded guilty to causing unnecessary suffering to protected animals and his eight-month prison sentence was suspended for 18 months.

He was ordered to do 150 hours of unpaid work, and disqualified from keeping all animals for a period of five years, a ban which he may not contest for at least four years.

He was also ordered to pay £2,000 in costs.
