The legal definition of animal cruelty depends on the laws of your state/municipality. Some have a very narrow definition that only includes torture.
In other locations the definition can be much more broad, possibly including:
* beating or otherwise physically harming the animal * insufficient shelter * insufficient access to food and water * leaving the animal tied outside for too many hours in a row or in a day.
