ANIMAL TESTING IS EVIL & MUST END...
Pay attention to what you, as a consumer, are supporting... when you make purchases from companies who use animal testing in the production of their products
Ask yourself -
Has an animal suffered in the making of this product -
THERE ARE ALTERNATIVES TO ANIMAL TESTING you know.
IT IS NOT ONLY BARBARIC
BUT completely UNNECESSARY.
SHOP SMART - HELP to SAVE AN ANIMAL FROM SUFFERING.
STOP ANIMAL TESTING

HI ...... PLEASE FIRSTLY JUST LET ME SAY -- IF YOU ARE OF A DIFFERENT RELIGION & YOU ARE HERE TO "SAVE ME" - PLEASE DON'T BOTHER -
I AM A PROUD PAGAN
& am very much at peace with myself & my beliefs & I am not at ease with others trying to convert me - or push their beliefs onto me ...
I am happy however to meet people of all religions - as long as you have no ulterior motives, I love to make friends with others - who love animals as much as I do..
In fact that is why I'm here - to make friends with who'm I can join forces with - to spread the word of Making this world a kinder place for animals.
MY LIFE REVOLVES AROUND ANIMALS- THEY ARE MY FAITH, MY HOPE, MY PASSION & MY WORLD. I have no room in my life for people who cant be kind to animals.
So if you're not an animal lover - I hope you take heed of the messages you will read on my page, and make the change to help better our world & curb our actions of cruelty, uncompassion & ignorance towards all living creatures.
My aim on my mission is to help make as many people as possible aware of the importance of respect for these sentient beings & hopefully make some small difference in the lives of animals.
Now...
I'm a typical Piscean, VERY HAPPILY MARRIED with 3 beautiful children. So please dont hit on me - I take that as total disrespect, straight up...
As you will tell as you read on - I have a great love of animals.
I have a wicked sense of humour & like nothing more than a good laugh or a shit stir!!! Usually both!
I tell it exactly how it is, which has been known to get me into trouble many a time, but no one could ever say they don't know what I think.
Ask me & I will tell you, especially when it comes to something I believe very strongly in - like Animal Welfare.
I couldn't be bothered with non-genuine people - life is too short for people you can't trust...
However, do the right thing by me & you've got a mate for life.
I AM ON A MISSION TO STAND UP FOR THE RIGHTS & WELFARE OF ALL ANIMALS OF OUR PLANET.
Mother Earth is my Goddess & she is amazing how she manages to provide us with all we need each day no matter how much some of us abuse her.
She won't survive our abuse forever though - & we all NEED TO WAKE UP & DO OUR PART TO SAVE HER - before it's too late.
The answers are all there right under your nose --
Tune in & stop being ignorant - It's so easy...
Australian's Check out this site - & make your effort to save our planet for our future generations.

I am not a materialistic person - & the things that make me smile are very basic things.
Some of my favourite things are
my Dog's Wagging Tails when I get home,
my Parrot Singing along to Kasey Chambers,
Beautiful Sunsets & Sunrises,
Dolphin Calls,
the Sound of Rain on the Roof while I Sleep,
my Childrens Smiles when they wake in the Morning,
seeing Happy Animals being Loved by their Owners,
hanging out with my Best Friend~My Amazing Husband,
Grooving with my baby to The Wiggles,
my Cats hanging out with me at my Computer Desk,
the Wild Birds feeding in our backyard,
Playing my Guitar, Butterfly Days,
the innocent look of a Baby Animal,
a Green Frogs in my Mailbox,
Sitting on a cliff in my favourite Meditation Spot listening to the Ocean's Waves & feeling that fresh Breeze on my Face,
My toes in the sand,
Driving around in my Green Day mobile listening to my favourite song & my baby bopping along,
Seeing my parents happy & healthy,
hugs from my awesome teenage Son,
Going for a night out with my dear Ma
Remembering the most Amazing day of my life - Our Pagan Handfasting,
The scent of a Flower, Waterfalls
& the Power of a Thunderstorm...

You scored as Angel. Angel: Angels are the guardians of all things, from the smallest ant to the tallest tree.
They give inspiration, love, hope, and positive emotion. They live among humans without being seen. They are the good in all things, and if you feel alone, don't fear.
They are always watching. Often times they merely stand by, whispering into the ears of those who feel lost. They would love nothing more then to reveal themselves, but in today's society, this would bring havoc and many unneeded questions.
Give thanks to all things beautiful, for you are an Angel.

What Mythological Creature are you? (Cool Pics!)
created with QuizFarm.com
I am a committed ANIMAL LOVER & Animal Welfare Activist.
I absolutely love BIRDS & have bred & hand reared them for many years..
We are the proud owners of a very cheeky green QUAKER parrot named Strewth, & a variety of other feathery friends...
We have a gorgeous natured STAFFY named "Snatch" (as in the movie) & FELINES, "Eartha & Furball"...
Our newest addition to our family is Darkshya.
A Kelpie x pup who we recently saved from death row.
She had one day left to find a home-I had to save her.
In her short life - she had already been mistreated & abused, she is very timid - but very loyal and loving...
Its amazing - what a little bit of TLC & some good training can do.
I can't imagine how someone has abused such a cute little young pup. She is a very intelligent little girl & Snatch has got to be one of the most human dogs I've ever met... Man I love my pets....
All our pets have been saved from the pound or have been strays who've wandered in.
After working in Pet Shops for several years.
I encourage everyone to CHECK OUT YOUR LOCAL HOMELESS ANIMAL SHELTER FIRST if they are looking for a pet ---
Save the life of one of these animals & they will spend their life repaying you with their undying loyalty & unconditional love.
I CANT STAND PEOPLE WHO DUMP THEIR PETS - or types like the scumbags who drive along & throw a bag of puppies or kittens out the window of their car!
GET SOME BALLS AND BE RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR PET..
If you don't want to have the responsibility of Spaying & Neutering, Vaccinating & Providing basic love & care to this animal - you shouldn't have got it in the first place - So - find a good home for it with someone who will love it...
The DISPOSABLE PET attitude you can read about in my Blog - is one of my pet hates...
SAVE AN ANIMAL ON DEATH ROW @ a SHELTER - don't support backyard breeders, puppy mills or petshops...
I'm constantly disgusted with the amount of homeless & mistreated animals. We are living in a generation of DISPOSABLE PETS -
I'd love it if you could help me in my crusade for WORLD PEACE SAVING MOTHER EARTH & a STOP TO ANIMAL CRUELTY...
We are Pagan & have a great respect for our Mother Earth.
You Are a Prophet Soul
You are a gentle soul, with good intentions toward everyone.
Selfless and kind, you have great faith in people.
Sometimes this faith can lead to disappoinment in the long run.
No matter what, you deal with everything in a calm and balanced way.
You are a good interpreter, very sensitive, intuitive, caring, and gentle.
Concerned about the world, you are good at predicting people's feelings.
A seeker of wisdom, you are a life long learner looking for purpose and meaning.
You are a great thinker and communicator, but not necessarily a doer.
Souls you are most compatible with: Bright Star Soul and Dreaming Soul What Kind of Soul Are You?
I love TATTOO's.
It's an addiction my husband & I are always planning our next works of art...
We've both got some works in progress & I figure as long as there is clean skin - there is always room for more INK!
We have an awesome tattooist here where we live & he gets a lot of visiting artists aswell who do some very nice work.
But personally -- My loyalty lies with my tattooist of many years - Mick Aplin---
Mick's not just a tattooist - he's a real artist.
(On ya Mick!)
I'm an ex-bass guitarist currently retired!) & have played in several bands over the years.
A few of them -
"The Wounded Dogs", "No Shame", "Kopulayta", "Plum Crazy", "OverIt" & "Not with my Camel"...
Sadly, It's been a while since I've picked up my poor ole bass - I can't wait until I can get back into it again.
I've seen Green Day Live & I must say it was definately an occassion I wont forget in a hurry.
YOU GUYS ROCK!
My husband & I rocked it up big time in the MOSH PIT - 3 rows from the front of the stage - while I was pregnant...
A little rugged at times - but well worth the experience.
One we will never forget.... Unbelievable~!
I LOVE GREEN DAY.... :)
I LOVE PENGUINS -
Do your part to stop GLOBAL WARMING
WAKE UP!!!

My Interests



FIGHTING TO MAKE THIS WORLD A KINDER PLACE FOR ANIMALS

It's not an easy task when we are surrounded by many uncaring & small minded people...

I'm sure any animal lover reading this can relate to what Im saying....

Some days I find it very disheartening & wonder how we will ever make a difference to the way others think & act.

YOU WON'T BREAK MY SPIRIT.

I have so much respect for groups such as Sea Shepherd who fight for what they believe in...

BRING IT ON...




I have a strong interest in many things including:
♥Animal Welfare,
♥Green Day,
♥Tattoos,
♥Music,
♥Nature,
♥Paganism,
♥Reiki & Universal Healing Energy,
♥Crystals,
♥Astrology,
♥Norse Mythology,
♥Aromatherapy,
♥Flower Essences,
♥Herbal Medicine,
♥Animal Communication
♥Meditation

♥I LOVE ALL ANIMALS♥, being a wife & mum, song writing, short story writing, & I am a very keen photographer -
(I never miss a kodak moment!)
Thank Goddess for digital camera's!
I am looking forward to getting my Reiki attunement & studying a Diploma Flower Essences & Energy Therapy for animals soon.
I enjoy Family time with our Children & Pets.

I spend many many hours researching & Campaigning for Animal Rights & Welfare. I am a Volunteer with the RSPCA in the Animal Welfare education dept.

I am strongly apposed to ANIMAL TESTING Please be aware of how easy it is for you to help.
How you - can make a difference...

and how you - can make this end.

On our own - we only whisper
Together ~ United our voice is heard

If there's a protest going on in my hometown - requiring someone to be the voice for animals or tieing themselves to a tree in the name of Animal Welfare or environmental preservation - just call me - I'm your woman!

♥If I could change anything about the world - I would hope for WORLD PEACE -- & an END TO ANIMAL CRUELTY..♥

I would break into every animal testing lab in the world & let the poor animals escape.

I also HATE CIRCUS'S & would love to see those poor tormented animals be allowed to live the rest of their lives free from the tortures of Confinement & Deprivation that they are so used to.

We should all do our bit to protest circuses with animals -- & promote the ones who don't keep animals for Human Entertainment.

Maybe it's something - (like all animal welfare issues) that people just don't think about == But seriously -

WHO WOULD WANT TO TAKE THEIR CHILDREN TO A CIRCUS WHO EXPLOITS ANIMALS --

Not only are you supporting their Cruelty & Ignorance of the Freedoms of Animal Rights, but THEY ARE ENDANGERING THEIR CHILDREN by being there.

~I BELIEVE THAT EVERY ANIMAL HAS THE RIGHT TO EXERCISE THEIR NATURAL INSTINCTS & LIVE FREE OF CRUELTY, TORTURE & CONFINEMENT~...

Circuses do not set any type of example of this...

~ANIMALS ARE BEINGS - WHO DESERVE OUR COMPASSION AND RESPECT~

I AM VERY MUCH ADVERSE TO ~LIVE ANIMAL EXPORT~ from Australia to the Middle East.

Not only do our animals suffer in the transportation to these countries - But those who actually do make the trip - are then subjected to disgusting cruelty - in a country where there are NO LAWS to protect them....

WAKE UP AUSTRALIA -
Surely we claim to be a bit more civilized than this --

By allowing this to happen - we are no better than them -- for the sake of the allmighty $$dollar$$ - we are conditioning ourselves to the fact that this heinous trade is OK.

***ANIMALS HAVE RIGHTS TOO*** Snap out of it -
BAN LIVE ANIMAL EXPORT

Check it out for yourself...

www.animalsaustralia.org

Do what you can to help stop a trade which we, as Australians, should NOT BE PROUD OF...

"FAILURE IS NOT AN OPTION - BECAUSE IT DOESN'T EXIST
FAILURE ... IS JUST ONE CRITICAL STEP
... IN THE PATH TO SUCCESS...

Animal rights is something I believe very strongly in...If there is anyone who is reading this that shares my beliefs - please let me know.. I would love to meet like minded people. The animals need us to speak out for them.

ANIMAL TESTING IS NOT NECESSARY TO ENSURE CONSUMER SAFETY. Although the companies claim to be using these tests for consumer safety, many hundreds of companies worldwide do not test on animals.

Animal testing IS NOT DESIGNED TO PROTECT - YOU - THE CONSUMER, BUT TO PROTECT THE COMPANY against you in case you sue.

If concern for the consumer is of paramount importance, then why do manufacturers consider using potentially dangerous substances in products such as cosmetics and toiletries?

EVEN SO - THERE IS NO NEED FOR ANIMAL TESTING AS THERE ARE MANY SAFE AND RELIABLE NON-ANIMAL TESTS AVAILABLE.

~~TOGETHER~~ ---- *WE CAN SAVE THE WORLD*

Homeward Bound
Dr Dolittle
Bad Boys 1 & 2 - those 2 dudes are as funny as ****

Television:


I mainly watch Austar & am an addict of ANIMAL PLANET.
I love the Documentaries on National Geographic & Discovery Channels. Nothing is more interesting than learning about animals in their natural environment.
We all could learn some lessons from watching this sort of show.

I love Medium, Kath & Kim (look at moi Kimmoi, look at moi, It's noice, it's unusual, it's different) & Rove Live.

I'm proud to say though - that the majority of my television viewing is spent on shows like The Wiggles, Higglytown Hero's & The Upside Down Show!!!
Let me recommend - The Wiggles with Steve Irwin - in Crocdile Hunter- even from an adults point of view - if you love Steve and Terri - this is mega amusing...

ON YA STEVE -- what a contagious personality... WE miss you

Books:


VEGAN PLANET by Robin Robertson, A MUST READ,
Tattoo Magazines,
"Insight" - Australia's #1 New Age Magazine,
Harvest of Hope by Dr Jane Goodall

& I believe that there are some titles by Cptn Paul Watson that will be on my reading list very soon aswell.

Heroes:


"TODAY --- IS THE TOMORROW...
YOU WERE DREAMING OF YESTERDAY
My Hero is my ♥Ma♥ - the strongest & bravest woman I have ever known & the most loving Mother & Granny ~ we are blessed to have her.
I love you Ma...♥♥♥
CAPTAIN PAUL WATSON of SEA SHEPHERD - one of the most heroic men on this planet by my standards,
My cousin Alex, (love ya sweeeet!)
GREEN DAY & RISE AGAINST
for their strong powerful lyrics & commitment to getting a message out there, & changing this otherwise doomed planets way of thinking
Steve Irwin...
the commitment that man had to wildlife & all animals was amazing & unfortunately, he died trying to make the rest of us aware of the need for respect & conservation of our Beautiful Planet & all that lives on it.
The passion for animals he had, lives on in his daughter, & I'm glad to know that she will be around in our childrens generation to carry on her dad's commitment & share the knowledge.
and... ANYONE WHO IS AS PASSIONATE AS I AM, ABOUT MAKING THIS WORLD A KINDER PLACE FOR ANIMALS --
YOU all GIVE ME HOPE & RESTORE MY FAITH IN HUMANITY -- which I sometimes tend to lose - especially lately.
Dr Jane Goodall who is a Primatologist & very dedicated human being commited to educating the world in order to save the environment & our creatures.
What an absolutely amazing woman...
See her site www.janegoodall.org
My husband ~ for the amazing person that he is & the crap he has overcome. You stand by me through everything.
You are one of a kind I LOVE YOU & YOU ROCK!
My Pa for being the most caring Father & Grandfather I ever could have hoped for...
My Bro ~ for showing me that you don't ever need to take crap - from anyone...
CREATE THE WORLD YOU WANT TO LIVE IN
Isn't it about time we made a change?
Isn't it about time - to stop the suffering
Isn't it about time that this world was a
