Christine Hemming, 53, whose husband John is MP for Birmingham Yardley, was found guilty of burglary at Birmingham Crown Court. She was filmed on CCTV removing the kitten, called Beauty, from the Birmingham home of Emily Cox last year.
The kitten was owned by the four-year-old daughter the MP had with Ms Cox. It has not been found since it was filmed being removed on 29 September 2010.

She told the court she was dropping off post at the house in Church Road, Moseley, after arguing with her husband on the phone and did not know there was a cat there. "I left holding a kitten - there is no doubt about that - but I have no recollection of picking the kitten up." She also said she had tried to return the animal when she realised she had it by slotting it under the fence of a house in a street in Ms Cox's neighbourhood.
Isn't it amazing the trouble that a little pussy can bring!!??
