Destroying, castrating or spaying animals
#19
B"H

There is nothing new in this question that isn't included in your cited statement from Dr. Michael. We humans don't have permission to mercy-kill any living animal.
We humans must concentrate on this point: we are obligated to help/have mercy on all living beings up to, but not including extinguishing life. We should not on our own determine the death for any living creature, since that is G-d's authority. On G-d's authority, He permits us humans to use animals for our well-known necessary or practical needs, including taking the life of the animal if our human need requires that (for example, to kill an animal for our food), but we should not be cruel in the process.
