Tell The USDA - APHIS: STOP Animal Abuse and Cruelty!

Animal cruelty covers a wide range of actions. Each type of abuse has displayed certain patterns of behavior that we can use to help understand more about why people commit the crimes we encounter today.Animal cruelty is often broken down into two main categories: active and passive, also referred to as commission and omission, respectively.

Active Cruelty 

Many times a parent or domestic partner who is abusive may kill, or threaten to kill, the household pets to intimidate family members into sexual abuse, to remain silent about previous or current abuse, or simply to psychologically torture the the victims, flexing their "power".

Passive Cruelty 

Examples of neglect are starvation, dehydration, parasite infestations, allowing a collar to grow into an animal's skin, inadequate shelter in extreme weather conditions, and failure to seek veterinary care when an animal needs medical attention.

These industries are regulated by the Food and Drug Administration and the Environmental Protection Agency, respectively, and it is the responsibility of the companies that kill animals in order to bring their products to market to convince the regulatory agencies that there is a better way to determine product safety.

We, the undersigned, urge you to enforce stronger laws and sentences for animal abuse and cruelty.



We need to put an end to all the animal abuse that is happening worldwide. Animals are a HUGE part of our daily lives and play a very key role in it from seeing eye dogs to police dogs and everything in between. We need to show them all the respect and love they deserve. NO creature should have to go through what is happening to these animals no. It is unacceptable and has to stop. Animals are getting abused, tortured, killed for no reason other than sick people enjoying watching them suffer. The criminals are just getting a slap on the hand and nothing else. If they will do this to an animal they could do it to a child as well.

Let us work together to make it a safer place for animals to live and enough like to the fullest like they deserve to.
