Man Admits Killing Cats For Defecating On Sidewalk

PITTSBURGH (AP) — A Pittsburgh man has pleaded guilty to killing three homeless cats by leaving poisonous mothballs in his yard for them to eat because they defecated on his sidewalk.
44-year-old Daniel T. Smith pleaded guilty Tuesday to animal cruelty counts.
Police say two women who had been feeding a colony of 11 homeless cats reported in July 2015 seeing Smith put two dead cats in a trash can and seeing another cat vomiting. That cat was later euthanized.
