Yes, it is a big deal. The inability to feel compassion is a key trait in a psychopathic personality. If the guardians of these children didn't treat it as a big deal, the kids might grow up thinking it's OK to torture animals.
I'm frankly surprised that you fail to feel compassion for this animal. Is it because you think the cat is not worthy of compassion because the animal is not as smart as you are, or do you lack compassion for people as well?
