West Ham make donations to NINE different animal welfare charities following the £250,000 fine they handed to Kurt Zouma in the wake of the defender's cat-kicking scandal

West Ham have made donations to nine animal welfare charities following the club's fine handed to defender Kurt Zouma in the wake of his cat-kicking scandal.

Last month, the 27-year-old was seen kicking and hitting at his terrified cat in footage posted to Snapchat by his brother Yoan.

The Premier League club condemned the Frenchman's actions and fined him two weeks' wages, worth £250,000, which they pledged would be handed to animal charities.

The club announced the West Ham United Foundation have now identified nine animal welfare charities to donate to following Zouma's fine.
