Kitty Jones: The Girl Who Loved Animals

Avatar of peta2

Posted January 17, 2013 by peta2 staff

Meet Kitty Jones, a peta2 Street Teamer from Vermont! Kitty is so active for animals that she recently had a documentary made about her work—and now she’s coming at you with her top seven tips for speaking up for animals in the new year!

  1. Join or start an animal rights group at your school!
  2. Go to or host vegan potlucks. (Get some recipes first!)
  3. Start a fundraiser for animal rights groups and sanctuaries. (Her last birthday brought in $160 for Save The Frogs!)
  4. Hold a movie screening for friends and family!
  5. Make coin jars to raise funds for organizations and ask managers at local cafés or restaurants if they would put one beside the cash register. (Her coin jar for Help Animals India has taken in more than $40!)
  6. Take your friends on a field trip to an animal sanctuary so that they can see the animals face to face and hopefully stop eating them.
  7. Leaflet at school or around town.

Phew! What keeps Kitty motivated? Knowing that she makes a difference.

“I really feel that until we can address the cruelty we inflict upon the most innocent and vulnerable, we will continue to be violent towards each other,” she said. “I’m so proud to be a part of such a vital movement. There’s so much that people can do to make the world a better place, for people, animals, and the environment. I consider choosing a vegan lifestyle to be the single greatest thing an individual can do for improving our world.”

    Supercool movie Kitty! Where/when can we see it?
    I volunteer at the local animal sanctuary and help my sister in her animal companion care business. And I’m a proud and happy vegan!

    Too long to explain here, it's long enough for a novel.

    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

    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.

    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.
