The Background
Animal cruelty remains a serious issue in many communities.
The victims are not just wild animals, but also pets—those meant to be protected and loved.
Among all domestic animals, cats are reported as one of the most frequent victims of neglect and abuse.
Many abuse cases involve cats.
Cats are often overlooked and vulnerable to mistreatment, especially stray ones.
Most cruelty cases happen in silence.
Many acts of animal abuse go unreported and unnoticed in neighborhoods.
Neglect is the most common form of abuse.
Lack of food, shelter, and medical care harms more cats than direct violence.
What is Cat Abuse?
Cat abuse is torturing cats in all sorts of ways. There are many types of cat abuse, it’s physical abuse, emotional abuse, neglect, etc.
- Physical abuse is kicking, drowning, hitting, poisoning, and others.
- Emotional abuse is causing fear, distress, or put the cat through loud noises.
- Neglect is the most common abuse to a cat, it includes, failing to provide food & water, shelter, and proper veterinary care.
Why Do They Do Animal Abuse?
After conducting a survey to 91 responses, they think 20-30 is the age where most people abuse animals. Now, this may be because from a child, they have lack of knowledge or been influenced. But, they could also be doing it for fame, entertainment, doesn’t like animals, psychological problems, etc.
Age 20-30
Based on a small survey, many cases of animal abuse are reportedly committed by individuals aged 20 to 30. This could be due to lack of empathy development, unresolved childhood trauma, or unchecked emotional stress during early adulthood.
Lack of Knowledge
Some people harm animals not out of cruelty, but ignorance. Without proper education on animal welfare, they may view pets as objects or treat stray animals poorly, unaware of the suffering they cause through neglect or mistreatment.
Psychological Issue
Mental health struggles such as anger, depression, or antisocial behavior can lead to acts of violence, including toward animals. In some cases, harming animals may be a symptom of deeper psychological problems that need professional attention.
Why isn’t the government doing anything?
According to an expert from Animals Don’t Speak Human, the government in Indonesia seems to be more focused on their people rather than animals. Indonesia’s current issues makes it that the government has to focus on their people first.
However, they have made a law for people who abuses cats, but it’s a light punishment, they’re only fined for Rp. 2.000.000, and only 3 months of jail time. Sometimes, they ignore the case and move on.
But, do they even care about cat abuse? Or do they not know what is cat abuse?
So How Can We STOP it?
How to Spot Cat Abuse and Help Cats Stay Safe
Cats can’t speak like humans. They can’t say, “I’m hurt,” or “I’m scared.” That’s why we need to learn how to notice when something is wrong.
Sadly, many cats get hurt or left alone, and people don’t help—because they don’t know the signs. This guide will help you become someone who notices, cares, and protects.
