Are you sensitive to animals and their rights?

I’m an animal lover and I can not stand them feeling pain for human pleasure. They are inferior to us, but that doesn’t mean we should literally torture them. They don’t even have rights to live. It bothers me because I had a pet and I know how animals are, how they feel both pain and love as much as us human do. I think animal problem is an immense one that is not being solved… What about you?
