Am very similar. People I don't know am not terribly concerned. Animal I don't know absolutely horrified.
Those know to me are a different type but I definitely feel more for animals than for people.
Animals are is much nicer in my opinion.
I too have read something similar to what s4ndm4n2006 has (can't remember where though.) Where I read it it was in context of BPD vs NPD but basically it said that the BPD does feel empathy it's just really hard to express it when your own emotions are so out of control
