Wellington - A New Zealand man was sent to prison for seven months on Friday after admitting he fed five live kittens to his dog. Te Ahu Aaron Mankelow, 31, of Gisborne, was sentenced in the local court after pleading guilty to five counts of "wilfully ill-treating an animal" under the Animal Welfare Act.

The court was told he recorded the kittens' deaths in a video on his cell phone which was later passed to the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SPCA).

Mankelow was also banned from owning or caring for animals for 10 years.

SPCA chief executive Robyn Kippenberger said the sentence should have been longer.

She said the dog, a pitbull known as PP, had been trained to viciously attack other animals and had to be put down.

What a shame that they couldn't retrain the dog and put the "owner" down.

Or throw him into a croc's enclosure at feeding time and see how he likes it! Oh, and film the event!

What a nasty piece of work. Sicko.

Sick sick sick. He should be dropped in a tank of man eating sharks and see how he likes it.
