Notes: | Describes the methodology and results of a US study that explored the relationship between cruelty to animals and domestic violence, providing an initial overview of previous research in this area. Concern for the welfare of pets was revealed to be a significant factor in both urban- and rural-based victims' decision to leave an abusive partner, particularly where actual threats had been made. Suggests service providers need to begin addressing these concerns by collaborating with animal organisations and veterinarians. |
