AUSTRALIA -- A man who allegedly beat a cat to death on Christmas night has been granted bail after facing court on Tuesday.
Dylan Clarke of Helensvale on the Gold Coast was arrested and charged with with two counts of serious animal cruelty and possession of cannabis and drug utensils.
Police were called by neighbors to the Labrador home of Dylan Clarke’s friend overnight after reports of a disturbance.
When they arrived about 10:30pm they found a dead kitten on the footpath.
Clarke was standing at the front door, police say.
When officers went inside they found a dead adult cat, which the 25-year-old allegedly said he beat to death.
Clarke was charged with two counts of serious animal cruelty.
He was also charged with possession of cannabis and drug utensils.
Clarke was this morning granted bail by the Southport Magistrates Court on the proviso he surrender two pet snakes to the RSPCA within 48 hours of being released from custody.
Magistrate Gary Finger also imposed bail conditions that stop the man owning, acquiring or possessing any animals while on bail.
Clarke is also not allowed to have contact with a witness in the proceedings.
He will reside at his parents property in Helensvale until he returns to court on January 11.
'I didn't kill anything mate, I don't do this stuff,' Clarke said when questioned by reporters after leaving court.
