A Baltimore man pleaded guilty to beating a cat with a metal pole and putting it in a trash bin and was sentenced to jail time and probation, the State's Attorney's Office said Friday.
Veterinarians at the Baltimore Animal Rescue and Care Shelter treated the cat, which made a full recovery, according to prosecutors.
A district court judge sentenced Anthony Brown, 54, to 90 days in prison, half of which will be suspended, and 18 months' probation. Brown is banned from having a pet while on probation and has been ordered to pay BARCS $520.87 for the cost of treating the cat, prosecutors said.

If I was the judge I'd confine Brown in the same cage with a hungry lion. Prison is just TOO friendly isn't it?
