Philip Gannon, of Bulrush Close in Walkden, pleaded not guilty to the offence at Bolton Magistrates' Court.
His estranged wife, Jacqueline Hodson, found the dead kitten the next morning when she went to put her washing in the machine.
An RSPCA inspector described the cruelty as "the most horrific case of animal suffering".
Sentencing was adjourned until 12 November for the preparation of pre-sentence reports.
