A família multiespécie e a sua responsabilidade afetiva em situações de abandono de animais domésticos

Abstract

The human-animal relationship is increasingly present in our society. The multispecies family is formed by people and their pets, who are often cared for as children, companions and family members and, thus, bring the affective relationship as the main point of coexistence. The affection that exists between these two beings ends up being a problem for our legal system, since we do not have a law that guarantees animals in cases of abandonment and affective responsibility. In this way, the objective of this work project is to analyze the affective responsibility that families have for domestic animals in situations of abandonment, as well as the possible consequences that this abandonment can cause in pets, in addition to reflecting on what leads families to have that decision. The present work will be carried out by the dialectical method, which seeks to use conversation, opinions and thus, to know what society thinks about the problem of work and the research method - field research.
