"The is a link between animal cruelty and family violence" [The Linkage Project]
"A correlation between animal abuse, family violence and other forms of community violence has been ... abuse of both children and animals is connected in a self-perpetuating cycle of violence. When animals in a home are abused or neglected, it is a warning sign that others in the household may not be safe. In addition, children who witness animal abuse are at a greater risk of becoming abusers themselves." [American Humane]
"The “Link” is the phrase used to identify the connection between animal abuse and violence towards people such as partner, elder and child abuse." [The Humane LINK]
