Human feelings to animals: Anthropomorphism. I learned that in 7th grade, and remember it now because it is a fun word. Human characteristics to inanimate objects: personification.

Anthropomorphism.
The word combines elements from two Greek words: 'anthro' from anthropos (human) and 'morph' from morphos (shape or form).
