What constitutes animal cruelty in your opinion

[Night Fox]

cruelty is doing something, or even just letting it happen, despite knowing it hurts someone (or in this case something)
so your parents are being cruel too. so are you, even, since you know it happens and as far as I can tell you don't do anything to stop it while he's doing it?? jesus christ

if the cat eats my plants, she gets smacked upside the head.

I don't see a problem with that

maybe you should hit your brother so he can associate that to not doing bad stuff

That's just discipline. OP's brother is hurting the cat for no reason other than he's impatient.

Murder the brother
Then eat the cat
No seriously, take it from him. He probably has the mentality of a killer. A abusive husband/spouse if less.

"No no silly brother, not like that, this is what a cat looks like in the blender"
>put cat in the blender

Now there's no more cat for him to bully and he learnt a lesson.
You also made a delicious dip in the process.

Take the cat away. That is cruelty, and he is gaining nothing from having it.

My pets flinch when I attempt to pet them.

I've raised them well.

Before any of you get butthurt about autism - He's my brother. I'd take a bullet for him, no matter how badly I despise him.

That and my little brother is low-level autism, mostly social (unsure of the type)
I'd tie an anchor around his ankle and throw him off a boat if it was legal
then again that may just be because I despise him as a person.

why would you take a bullet for him if you hate him?

Ahem, look at the top quote. And you'll find out that your question has been answered.

Ohana means family.

get a doctor to play a prank on him and say they mis-diagnosed him with autism

get a doctor to play a prank on him and say they mis-diagnosed him with autism

then follow that up with telling him he has downs and put him in a home.
