I've seen a couple threads about witnessing animal abuse and not knowing what to do. Well there are are a couple options but first..
What is abuse?
- Neglecting an animal by locking it in a car during hot weather, or leaving it in other locations without food, water or shelter
- Abandoning a pet, such as when the owner no longer wants it or can no longer afford to care for it.
- Maliciously hurting, torturing, maiming or killing an animal
- Hoarding Animals.
- Failing to provide medical care to sick or injured animals you own
Report abuse to an animal control center, humane society, police. Explain to them the situation and if they see a cause for concern they'll step in.
