Another failed headline from the Sun. He wasn't jailed for failure to licence a cat, which is not a "jailable" offence. He was jailed for having an outstanding fine; the reason for the fine doesn't have any bearing on the sentence.
He also turned himself in, was given the option of pay the fine or go to jail.

I wouldn't pay a fine for a cat I didn't own, either. I imagine some lawyer will now take up the case and get it handled at a significant cost to the town.
There's a mechanism for disputing fines, simply refusing to pay is not it. Some people are their own worst enemies.
So are some governments.
