For me the abuse of ANY animal, bird, fish, snake... is a big no-no. It doesn't have to be a pet. The species doesn't matter. Well, I can live with an occasional swatting of a mosquito or a cockroach, but deliberate, groundless abuse of even insects turns me instantly off the book.
I wasn't so hypersensitive when I was young. I guess it's a result of working in a shelter for stray cats for many years.
