Explanation

The noun 'cruelty' is followed by the preposition 'to' when referring to the recipient of the cruel behavior. 'Cruelty to animals' is a standard English collocation. Other prepositions like 'from', 'after', or 'with' do not correctly express the direction of the action in this context.
