Defined
The Animal Awareness Organization posts …
If a living sentient being (human or non-human animal) is forced into slavery, food production, entertainment, medical research, product testing, fighting, racing, or if that being is used for indulgent items such as fur, or being killed in the name of predator control or wildlife control, chances are that living sentient being is abused.
… Neglect is not easily defined because it can take different forms from blatant cruelty to subtle unintentional indifference. Or can even be ignoring someone else’s cruel acts. Once we are aware of abuse to any living being, it is our moral duty to speak up, even if it’s done anonymously.

i think what people are doind to animals is so cruel because i have a dog and we think she was abused at the vets
That’s a pretty powerful statement brooke .. as Vets usually like to help animals. Although, I sometimes think they might abuse our wallets, I would hate to think that they abuse our pets. But, if you do think this is the case, there are probably organizations that can investigate.
i was wondering what you can do to help an abused pet!?
caity .. there’s lots you can do if you know of a pet that is being abused. Tell someone (your parents and other adults firstly, pet agencies, authorities, etc) and try to help the animal first. Be sure that the animal is being abused, rhan just reporting on someone because you don’t like th or to get even.

i think animal cruelty is wrong. stop doing it because animals dont deserve anything but respect. they didnt do anything to us, thats why we shouldnt be doing anything to them but loving them.
