Animals are in a sense far inferior to people, but i see no reason to treat them badly.

That said, my experience with Greeks and dogs/cats on my trip to Athens and the islands a couple of years ago was pleasant. I saw many people feed the strays, and one restaurant on Santorini let a stray cat visit with the diners. The owner of the restaurant said to us, "They belong to all of us." Unfortunately animals are still seen by many people of the world as being far inferior to humans and are treated as garbage.

I agree. I do not believe that animals are equal to humans, just think it's terrible when people abuse and neglect them.

To the OP: animal abuse happens all over the world, including the U.S. Just because animal welfare laws exist doesn't mean they're enforced. It'll get you just a slap on the wrist in this country.
