Under this logic, I could say that no one loves animals then.
Think about it, we can already cross non-vegetarians off the list from what you've stated, we can also cross vegetarians and vegans off the list because they, in general, still eat agriculturally grown vegies, which land is usually destroyed for crop killing many small animals such as insects, foxes, bunnies and other little critters, even "organically grown crops" still require land to be cleared and clearing any sort of land, especially in the magnitude that is required for crops for humans or animals, will almost certainly kill many animals. Even if you decide to stop the animal agricultural as well, cows, sheep and other animals have become dependent on humans to keep them alive, by stopping their cultivation they will eventually die out and become extinct. If you wear a belt, that was made by animals too, many sheet and quilt covers are made from animal hides and fur, many clothes are made from the same thing, anything made of leather is generally made of some sort of animal, mostly cow, so if you wanted to say you completely loved "animals" you'd have to pretty much stay away from everything, grow your own food and not mind when insects, bugs or other animals start eating it.
And under the same logic if you own a computer, smartphone, shoes or anything else of that sort, you can't say you love humans too. The CPU's that run your computer and smartphone, regardless of what brand you use, are made in basically slave labor camps, often exploiting child labor, in countries where that sort of thing is ok, most shoes do the same thing. You can't say you love the environment if you drive a car or if you use some form of transport or if you use electricity or, again, you eat any sort of produce including meat or vegetables.
I'm not necessarily saying this is what you're claiming, I'm just saying that you can't take things into such absolutes like that, you can't just say "You don't love animals unless you love ALL animals" because it's almost impossible to do anything without harming an animal, same for humans, same for environments. You can still love animals and eat meat, like you can still love the environment and drive a car and still love humans and use a smartphone, it's not necessarily all or nothing.
EDIT: The other thing to note is while the conditions that the animals live in are not necessarily nice (unless you buy free-range, in which case the conditions are ok, I have a farm with some cows on it and they can just freely venture around and do whatever they want). The actually killing process is very quick and very painless and they don't expect it coming. Because meat is muscle, an animal actually doesn't taste as good if it is in a state of stress when it dies, the muscle is rougher and tenser and harder to eat, for this reason many factories are actually financially interested in having an ethical death. For example, with a cow, they in general feed the cow, and while the cow is eating shoot a bolt into the back of it's head, killing it instantly. Now it's still killing, there's no way to get around it, but it isn't torture, it's very quick and as painless as you could get and completely unexpected.
