Janie cares about the mule so much because she can see qualities in it that they share. Both are forced to work without appreciation and the townspeople talk about both of them behind their backs. The mule reminds me of Linda from Incidents in the life of a Slave Girl, in that both the mule and Linda had their freedoms purchased for them by somebody else.
