After an animal has been abused the animal may be kept in the same living conditions and continue to get abused, the animal may also be abandoned, or it may be rescued by a humane socity like the A.S.P.C.A. Many animals may even be killed by the person that abused them. Hopefully the animal will be rescued by a humane socity and be adopted out into a new and nicer family.
