Question

Are we as muslims permitted to put an animal under if we think they are in a lot of pain or suffering?

Answer

If they are troublesome or it is difficult to take care of them, it will be permissible.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
