Animals get mistreated also so do humans, they both get treated the same when it comes to all the abuses in the world. It does make me sad, but I know about this stuff, so it doesn't make me cry, because crying while watching a commercial won't do anything. Donating to these animals, reporting an animal abuser, or stopping one yourself is a sure way of actually helping these animals. It won't stop animal abuse forever, but you did save those animals, as oppose to sitting down and crying in front of a television or computer screen.
