1. Know who to call to report animal cruelty. We're lucky here at the ASPCA in New York City because we have Humane Law Enforcement Agents who have the power to investigate and arrest perpetrators of animal cruelty in the state of New York. But every state and every town are different. In some areas, you may have to rely on the police department to investigate animal cruelty; in others, you may have to contact local animal control or another municipal agency. If you aren't sure where to report cruelty, please visit our Report Animal Cruelty section.
2. Get to know and look out for the animals in your neighborhood. By being aware, you're more likely to notice, for example, that the dog next door who was once hefty has lost weight rapidly—a possible indicator of abuse.
3. Make the call. Without phone calls from concerned citizens who report cruelty in their neighborhoods, we wouldn't know about most instances of animal abuse. It all comes from the public, it all starts with YOU—that's why it's so important to keep your eyes and ears open.
4. Provide as much as information as possible when reporting animal cruelty. The details that you provide can go a long way toward assisting an investigating officer. It helps to write down the type of cruelty you witnessed, who was involved, the date of the incident and where it took place.
5. Contact your local law enforcement department and let them know that investigating animal cruelty should be a priority. Animal cruelty is a CRIME—and the police MUST investigate these crimes.
6. Fight for the passage of strong anti-cruelty laws on federal, state and local levels by joining the ASPCA Advocacy Brigade. With stronger laws come tougher penalties. As an ASPCA Advocacy Brigade member, you'll receive emails asking you to write letters encouraging your legislators to pass these laws—and you can send them directly from our website.
7. Set a good example for others. If you have pets, be sure to always show them the love and good care they deserve. But it's more than just food, water, and adequate shelter. If you think your animal is sick, bring him to the veterinarian. Be responsible and have your animals spayed or neutered. And give your pets lots of hugs!
8. Talk to your kids about how to treat animals with kindness and respect. We regularly see children in homes where animal abuse has been reported. If a parent isn't treating the family's pets right, we tell the kids that their dog or cat would really appreciate fresh water every day or some daily playtime. If the animal has been left outside without shelter, we'll say, 'You have a nice house, and if you get cold, you can put a coat on. But your dog can't do that.' Children understand that animals are living creatures who have the ability to feel pain, joy and sadness.
9. Support your local shelter or animal rescue organization. It's a great way to make a difference. Some of our ASPCA volunteers foster animals who have been abused in their former homes, giving these dogs and cats the chance they deserve to have a good life. You can find a list of shelters and rescue groups in your area in our National Shelter Directory.
10. Start a Neighborhood Watch Program. Get to know the animals in your neighborhood and invite your friends and neighbors to do the same. Together you can keep an eye out for any suspicious behaviors—abuse and neglect of companion animals, the mistreatment of local wildlife, dogs left in hot cars and other signs of abuse.
\Cat abuse and even animal abuse in general is a horrible thing to do and you can even be fined a few year of prison if you are caught doing so. It is a awful and disgusting act as you are affection an innocent creature. It is your own responsibility to look after your pet and if you are not capable of doing so, do not get a pet I the first place! 
STOMPer Vernice was disturbed when she came across a video which depicted a woman sitting on a bunny, crushing it to death. The other two women in the room were amused by this. Please bring them to justice, says the STOMPer.
Do you know what has happened within only January? In the very fact there were already fifty-three cases of dog abusing in Singapore and it was only a month! Most of which were events where the dogs were kept very poor conditions. There were also cases where the dogs had been abused till it died. 
There is also another case of extreme dog abuse in Utah, where a dog was fund in box. The dog’s ears, eyes and throat glued with PVC glue, it’s legs had a huge amount of fractures. And this Labrador dog or puppy was only sixteen weeks old when it had to be euthanized! What sort thing did the dog do to get such inhumane treatment? So why do the perpetrators of such a crime get to run around scot-free? 
So what do these examples tell us? Dogs are such loyal companions and yet we, the humans who domesticated them, created a bond with them can do such things to a creature which loves us. In Singapore, there 933 cases of animal abuse. The dogs make up the majority. So, please, keep your house in proper hygiene for our furry friend. Don’t tie nor cage them up at home, please feed it, give it water, take care of it and be gentle. Don’t vent your anger on them no matter how mischievous they are and don’t get a dog because everyone has one, get one because you care.
