Animal Abuse

Ten years ago, the number of animal abuse cases was about 30, but recent data shows that the number has exceeded 100 (in 2019 and 2020), and it has become a problem. Do you know what kind of behavior can be considered abuse?

We can divide abuse in to two.

1. Intentional Abuse

This means doing something"You cannot do".
For example,

・Violating your pet physically

・Scaring your pet

2. Neglect

This means not doing something "Your supposed to"

・Not providing the necessary care and health care
(Not feeding food or keep it unchanged for days at a time, leaving nails and hair fully grown, etc.)

・Don't Treat for Disease
（Don't take them to veterinary care despite illness or injury）

・Keep them in a poor environment
(Feces and urine, loose hair, garbage, left behind, confined in a small cage, etc.)

These things are considered.
