Cruelty towards animals is something the vast majority of us have a serious problem with. And rightly so; inflicting misery or pain on other creatures simply because you can be symptomatic of seriously troubling traits, and it’s encouraging to consider that the days where people could treat their pets (and other animals) with wanton disregard are, in the main, over.
But that’s not to say certain individuals and their actions don’t still remind us why constant vigilance is needed. If you ask me, the idea of harming or causing stress a defenceless animal doesn’t bear thinking about. Sadly, not everyone thinks the same.
