There are so many reasons why animals get abused. Mostly people think they get abused because other people have so much anger inside them that they think hurting something else will make them feel better.

Animals get abused for a variety of reasons. when it is animals that are used for food, they are abused simply because it is cheaper. Some people feel power from abusing things smaller than them. Other times it could be that the person themselves used to be abused, and doesn't know how to be kind toward animals. Also, projection is a common problem. A person may wish to hit another person that angers them, but can't, so they take it out on an animal. some people are just cruel.

You can talk to the Animal Rights Organization and find out if they have any informational booklets and what not! If they don't go ahead and communicate with the person about the affects of the beatings. You write too much just give the basic info.

Because some people are heartless, and do not care about animals so they abuse and neglect them. Others have a good heart and care for animals.

But don't forget that some people really do love their animals so they keep them even if they are not capable of looking after them or do not have enough responsibility to look after them. It's hard to give up a pet, if you have a pet, you must know that. I learned this on Animal Cops. It's a TV show on Animal Planet. You should consider watching it because you can learn a lot about animal abuse and how to help injured animals.

Animals are being neglected because there is too much apathy toward other living creatures. People are so concerned with their own activities that they ignore the plight of discarded pets and strays. There are fewer restrictions on caring for animals than there are for their abuse, when the result for many pets is exactly the same.

Sometimes a pet owner finds their pet to be too much trouble to take care of, but also feels embarrassed to take it to an animal shelter since that is an admission to the shelter of having failed as a pet owner, and doesn't want to kill the animal either since that would be too cruel, so the easiest thing to do is to just abandon it on the theory that perhaps it will succeed in making a new life for itself in some way (although that is not very likely).
Animals are abandoned because the owner cannot care for them or doesn't care about them.

No one really knows why, but people think that those people expect animals to know everything and they don't so they get mad but in my personal opinion, I think animal abuse should be illegal! Hope this answer helps!

Most likely, the pet owner doesn't know how, or doesn't have the proper equpment. They're probably too embarrassed of the animal to send it back to the animal shelter because they'll be criticized for it, so they keep it. They probably don't know better for their own good, and animal neglect can be changed by simply educating the owner on animal neglect.
