Cruelty to animals, also called animal abuse, animal neglect or animal cruelty, is the infliction of suffering or harm by humans upon animals, either by omission (neglect) or by commission.

Divergent approaches to laws concerning animal cruelty occur in different jurisdictions throughout the world.
