What exactly is animal cruelty? Animal cruelty is actually categorized into two types: neglect to the point of cruelty and intentional animal cruelty.

The Problem: Animal Cruelty Animal cruelty could involve beating, shooting or stabbing animals, or setting them on fire. Neglect is often a problem because people buy pets then forget about them. Neglect is not giving an animal necessary food, water, shelter or vet care.

Animal Cruelty Something that I haven’t consider is how the way they kill the animals to get the meat. And how they are treated. They should at least not kill them like that.
