Animal cruelty is not something that should be taken lightly because it is a very serious issue in our society today. It should be taken with complete seriousness. Although many people believe there are many other issues to worry about in our society this is also very important because it shows what kind of people we are. Begin to have an open mind with this topic although it may be in the least of one’s concerns.
Animal abuse takes place every day in or out of a home. Whether it’s a close neighbors animal or just a random abandoned one which was left un cared for. Animals in this world are important enough to be treated with respect and carefulness because they play such a big role in our society. Animals are man’s best friend, whether a dog, cat, chicken, snake or rabbit they should all be treated as humans. Animals help certain people fill a void they might have in life or even just be a friend to pass the time with. They are very important and should be treated so. Also if we stand up for an animal that we believe is being harmed that makes one a better person but not just as a single but as a whole. If every person helped stop animal cruelty our society would be a better place because it would show that we, as Americans, do care about other things than just ourselves. All it takes is one person to change how we treat animals. Maybe one will think that just one helping a single animal wouldn’t change anything but it does because that animal you helped has a big impact in this world. You may think not but it

    I believe that animals are very similar to we humans, they feel and have emotions, thus they shouldn’t be mistreated or abused, rather be treated with love and respect. It was on this belief that the ASPCA was founded in 1866. The first anti-cruelty law was passed after their founding. “…..I have developed a deep respect for animals. I consider them fellow living creatures with certain rights that should not be violated any more than those of humans.” (Stewart)…

    Animal cruelty is a very severe issue. It happens all over the world, it can happen to any kind of animal, A farm animal, a pet, or even a wildlife animal. People tend to think that animals can be treated in a bad way because they aren’t “humans.” An animal is supposed to be treated as anyone would be treated in a good way and respectfully, they do have feelings just like we all do.

    Animal abuse is a topic that most people are aware of in this day and age. But to clarify this is not going to be a speech appealing to the pity of Sarah McLachlan's song during animal cruelty commercials. Believe me this topic is truly sad, but its gets worse when you look into the current problems. I will elaborate on what is currently being done. The SPCA is a very large benefactor in stopping animal abuse as many of you probably know by their numerous commercials asking for donations and public awareness but they cannot take this entire burden on their shoulders alone. The type of animal abuse I would like talk about is specific to farm animals. This is a particular topic that many people do not consider. The example i am going to use first is the life of a cow and then elaborate on chickens. A female cow on a dairy farm is repetitively impregnated, again, and again for the production of milk. Hundreds of cows residing on thousands of dairy farms across america are artificially inseminated to constantly produce milk for our consumption. After a time of nine months the cow gives birth to a calf, within hours or a day the calf is taken from the mom and transported to a veal…

    So far we've been staring at the situation from a Human POV, but animals are also living creatures; with needs that have to be taken care of by us, the highest intellectual being. It has been proven that animals have emotions, not expressed as our own, but they can be happy, sad, angry, hungry, hurt. It is unfair and an abuse that humans are so self centered focusing only in themselves, and not in the other third of living creatures. Animals should be loved and cherished, especially dogs and cats, as they can bring immense joy to any family. They can become your next Netflix Pal, or your Running Coach, or even your Cuddle Buddy when you're having a rough…

    Animal cruelty can be anywhere and done by anyone. Many people think of animals, especially cats and dogs, as disposable. They get a puppy for the children for Christmas only to realize it is a lot of work that the children are not ready for. They forget to feed and water it, don 't take it for walks, and don 't take it outside to use the bathroom. The solution, abandon it or just take it to the humane society. They 'll get another when the kids are older. An animal that is used to being taken care of by humans cannot fend for itself when it is dumped. It slowly starves or gets attacked by other animals. Many people will shoot stray animals with bbs to chase them away from their property. The animal becomes hurt or aggressive…
