Backwards Thinking

Is there a name for a mental illness where a person values animals over people? To me where animal love goes overboard is when an animal-lover really values an animals life equally to or more than human life. I can understand adoring your pet and loving it 'like a baby', but there are some people that really mean this. I also find that animal activists that are pro-abortion have a very skewed way of thinking.

Ugh. Do I have to write it?Someone considering adopting a baby maintains that the baby's status is equal to that of her four dogs.

Toxic neighbor has also been on an annoyingly irritating dog crusade lately.

The abortion blurb was added b/c it is characteristic of views I heard in college and reminds me of the familiar character Elaine from Seinfeld. I don't want to dwell on this.
