Christmas is almost here, and then soon after, 2013 will begin! The new year means a fresh start, new goals, and another year of helping animals every day. One of the many important things that we can do to help animals is to adopt them from shelters rather than buying from breeders. Breeders and puppy mills raise little pups in cramped and dirty conditions and then sometimes ship them hundreds of miles with inadequate shelter, food, and water.
Get a copy of our 2013 “Rescued” calendar and remind yourself and others of the importance of rescuing animals from shelters. The calendar begins by describing many of the victories that PETA and our international affiliates won in 2012. Each month features adorable pictures of rescued animal who got a second chance at life!
Remember: It’s important always to spay and neuter your animal companion to help minimize the animal overpopulation crisis.
Leave a comment below telling us what you plan on doing to help animals in the new year, and you could win a PETA 2013 “Rescued” calendar.
Good luck!*

Too long to explain here, it's long enough for a novel.
Well let's just say life ain't always beautiful but it's a beautiful ride. I love all my pets and would do anything for them. I have one dog, two cats, a ferret and my babygirl shaymin,(the cutest hedgehog alive) I'm into all different kinds of music. I'm a singer myself and love art.
Father loves to farm, be self sustainable, loves to read, he's a antiques/vintage auctioneer, art student, and looks like mr. Rogers. My mother is a Montessori teacher and is amazing with children, all about local organic foods, loves gardening, cooking etc. my sister who is nine years older than me was into indie music and introduced me to all sorts of things at a young age. This all rubbed of on me and from that base I grew into similar things. I'm an INFJ
I'm tall, a geek, nacho - obsessed, I love sewing and Cath Kidston, also I'm vegetarian (wannabe vegan.)
Jersey girl now I'm all country.
I love animals about as much as rock, heavy metal, tea, and coffee. Hoping to make a difference and help animals through PETA!!!
I want to get into marketing but not have to rely on people which have different morals and worldviews than I do to hire me. While I'm figuring this out, I want to show everyone what I believe in and spur them into action against injustices.

I am Angela. When I am not helping animals I am listening to music, reading, or playing video games. My spirit animal is a fox and I love nature. What else is there to know? Want to know anything about me, need advice or anything message me :)
