I'd say its not just "mistreatment" of animals, because even the stuff you do to beloved animals would be demeaning to a human being. Especially the part about controlling virtually every part of their lives. For pets, that is ok or even better than most alternatives. For Humans? Hell on earth.
I'd alternatively say that "people tend to act defensively/aggressively when they are mistreated the way humans mistreat other animals so often"
