Animal Rights~Get Informed!

I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

Hi! I am a mother, and animal lover. I have always grown up with, and around animals, and have a deep love and respect for them. I am active in animal rights issues and am a member of numerous organizations of dedicated to the cause. I wanted to start this site, because aside from the people who "just don't care", there are many who "just don't know". This site is a collaberation of information relating to various issues on the suffering of all animals, as well as information on how you can help. The information, pictures and videos contained in this site are shocking and disturbing, but unfortunatly are also a reality. My hope is to spread the word about these issues, inform the uninformed, and to bring together those who care and would like to make a differance in these animals lives, while making a differance in your own and others. So please, spread the word. Educate yourself and others, and be a voice for those who do not have their own.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hello! I am an school teacher, working on my MA, and active in animal rights issues. I too, belong to various organizations. I independently embraced vegetarianism at the tender age of 8, as I was the child of a hunter. I share similar hopes that the two of us can help spread the word to those that either "do not care" or simply "do not know". I encourage you to also help keep us informed and do what you can to make a difference.

We can get all the nutrients we need from soy-based proteins...Animal testing at its finestAn animal that has been bought or bred takes the place of one that could have been savedShelters do not have room for all the animals and must put many to sleep. When you adopt an animal from a shelter, you could very well be saving its life.This is a puppy mill, where dogs are "mass produced", and sent to your local pet stores. Every time you buy a puppy from the pet store, you help the puppy mill industry.
