Sportin' some peta2 flare is a great way to speak up without actually having to say a word and we've got a button for pretty much any issue you can think of. And since we want you to get out there and spread the word every chance you get, we thought we'd give some buttons away!

It was tough to decide which buttons to include in the packs because all of the issues are important to me, but these are some of my faves, so here goes. Each pack will have one of the following:

Boycott KFC, Cut Class, Not Frogs, Powered by Tofu because, well, because I love fried tofu, and the classics I Am Not a Nugget, and No Fur.

Want to get your hands on one of three free peta2 button packs? Just comment below telling me which peta2 campaign is nearest and dearest to your heart and why? Simple, right?

I would have to say that all the campaigns are important to me, but the most important is the Woof! campaign. One of the main reasons I went vegetarian is because I don' see a difference between a dog and a pig, or a cat and a cow. I was also a huge supporter of the Kentucky Fried Cruelty campaign, and I'm so happy that they agreed to PETA's welfare plans (I'm Canadian!) =)

The KFC boycott is most dearest to my heart because I am a huge fan of chickens. I absolutley hate how KFC treats theirs chickens it tears me up inside. I don't know who jas the heart to do that to poor creatures and I'm a proud vegetarian.

I love peta2.

I've been a vegan for a little over a year and I LOVE IT! :D

The KFC campaign means so much to me because I do not feel that it is right to torture poor chickens just to eat them.

I love the No Fur campaign. That is because I've grown up with animals all my life. Family and friends would always tease me because I brought stray animals home to take care of them or find thier owners, and because my family loves meat and I can't stand it. Knowing that a poor, defenseless, innocent animal is going through pain we couldn't imagine just makes me want to cry. I feel deeply for these animals. I can't imagine what kind of monster thiks it's okay to treat animals that way. People think that because animals can't tell you they're hurting that means they aren't, but I know that's not true. They can feel pain, just like you and me. Sure they can't talk, but no creature on Earth or anywhere in the universe deserves what those poor animals have to go through.

my favorite campaign is the no fur one because it's something everyone can take part in. people who aren't vegan or vegetarian can support it also because i'm sure no body would want a cute furry animal to be brutally skinned alive and left to die a slow an painful death. they don't have to change their lifestyles to support it so it's easy to help out.

The campaign that is most nearest & dearest to my heart would definatly be the KFC campaign.
They kill so many chickens each year..the least they could do is add a veg friendly burger to the menus in the USA.

I think Fight the Circus is very important because a lot of people are ignorant to the abuse and neglect of the performing animals. Animals used in circuses suffer everyday for the sake of human entertainment. What I find most sad about this is that the people attending such events are clueless to the cruelty happening before their own eyes. The same goes for "Donkey Basketball." My town held one of these a few months ago, and I discouraged people from going.

Personally, I can't say that one camaign is closer to my heart than another, because each campaign is close to my heart because I'm a vegan and I love animals. I feel favouring a campaign would take away from the fact that everything we do for animals in the fight against cruelty is important, it might take a long time to change the world, but to every animal we help in any industry what we do changed their world. :D

I love little chickens!

It just kills me to look at your pictures on the brochures thats why I am a proud and thankful vegetarian!

The No Fur Campaign Is My Favorite because we had bunnies, minks, and a few other very furry critters that me and some friends would visit on a farm owned by one of our friends. She found the animals there when she bought the farm which was an old fur farm. She tore the plants and cages that held the animals in down with the help of some friends. The animals are caged but the cages they are in now are 3 acres big. she put them in the fences because the wild animals would eat them. Fur IS GROSS!!!!!! ^_^

My boyfriend used to work for in a KFC restaurant, and he remembers seeing whole bags of chicken being thrown away due to a worker's carelessness, having dropped it on the floor, etc. Just the wastefulness there is bad enough, and it made us think about being vegetarians. We have both been meat-free for the last 5 years, and when I saw some of the KFC footage, I was even more glad that we made that decision. Peta2 is great for reaching out to young people, that is definitely a very effective way to create a change in society. Keep up the great work!

Well.....I saw this on myspace...
but I thought mine wouldn't really matter because there were so many comments already :D
The Anti-fur is the campaign I can relate to the most because I just can't bare to believe that they actually kill any animal at all for a damn coat! I get so angry at the world when I hear of this...but it is a wonderful, amazing thing that you have this campaign against it :D
I
Love
PETA!!!!!

The no fur campaign is nearest and dearest to my heart b/c i want animals to keep their fur and I wish animals would not get skinned alive.
P.S. I read and agreed to the privacy policy. And I agreed to the terms and conditions.

The meat is murder campaign is most personal to me. I dont think anyone can justify in any logical manner as to why it is "okay" to eat animals. Also, I have been vegetarian for a year now, and I am looking forward to one day transitioning to becoming vegan.

I would have to say the 'No Fur' peta2 campaign is nearest and dearest to me because I love all animals and I think we all should stand up for all furry little angels even thoughs some people think are ugly.
All animals need love and this campaign shows the would why fur is not needed in coats, hats and more!
Love ya, peta2.

The Burberry campaign.
In my city there's hardly any ppl who wears Burberry, and there isn't a store in here, but I hate anything about fur (like the trollsens)!!
The way that animals are skinned alive it's maybe one of the most inhumane and painfull thing a human can do against an animal!
The first time I saw the video I started crying, it's terrible.

All peta campaigna are very important to me. If I was going to get a free btton pack I would probably want one on the topic of animal testing. This is because I am very passionate about this topic. And one of my main goals in life is to end animal research because I feel that it is completely pointless and cruel. Ofcourse all of the topics are extremely important so whichever topic is chosen, I will be happy with it. :]

i would have to say is no fur because thousands of innocent animals die each day just to please someone for clothing. fur coats? who needs those? no one they die in horrible and painful deaths thats the campaign i love the most. AGAINST FUR!!

The pictures of chickens with the slogan "Jesus Loves Me Too" tends to reach me the most because (and I'm not trying to offend anybody, this is what I believe) animals are God's creations too. I find that some people say that God made animals for people to use, but I know that He wouldn't mean for humans to torture animals.

I would say the campaign "nearest and dearest" to my heart would be the new "woof!" campaign for several reasons. For one, my sudden realization that there's no real difference between farmed animals and domesticated animals except their appearance and perhaps the noises they make is one of the reasons I went veg. Second of all, my neighbor used to have a pig named Duffy that he had found almost dead in his back field(there was a big farm behind his house that another neighbor owned), so he took it in and fell in love with it. Eventually, I went over to his house for a visit and loved it too, so since the "woof" campaign is centered around pigs, it's special to me. Third, I think the "woof" campaign is one that will draw alot of attention and really make people think about what they're eating.

The campaign that is closest to my heart is the KFC boycott. My favorite band, Fall Out Boy who have touched me in so many ways on so many occasions support this cause. When I first read about the abuse of chickens on the peta2 website I was appalled. Right then, I took a vow never to eat there again. And I haven't. I put anti-KFC stickers on my water bottle and other possessions to spread the word. I have also told a lot of my friends about the horrid things that go on inside the KFC factory and some of then have banned KFC also. This campaign has changed the way I look at the whole fast food industry and animal cruelty.

I enjoyed the "Cut Class, not Frogs" campaign. I cringed when we had to do dissection in Bio and feel that if they cannot cut out the lesson completely, it should not be made mandatory and students, vegetarian or not, should be able to decide their frogs (or pigs in my case) fate.

Posted by: Amanda at July 18, 2008 4:49 PM
                                                               

It's hard to just pick one but, the campaign closest to my heart is the "Cut Out Dissection" campaign. Even though there's alternatives to dissecting a real animal, some people are intent on it. Dissection is something that needs to stop.

I think the "I am not a nugget" button is the most important. There are so many chickens being abused and killed for people's enjoyment. People need to be aware that what they eat wasn't that way before. That little piece of fried meat used to be an animal. It went through torture and suffering to be that piece of food. Thats why I chose this button.

The "I am not a nugget" and "Jesus Loves Me Too" campaigns are the closest to my heart. I have been a vegetarian for 18 (nearly 19!) years now and I know in my heart I will never EVER go back to eating meat. Animal cruelty is not on my list of things I want to accomplish in this precious life we're all given (ANIMALS TOO!). :( I don't wear leather or fur either and I only buy cruelty-free products. It means that much to me to keep up w/ the current lists of safe companies (there are a lot more than there were 18 years ago!!) :) Thanks so much for everything that you guys do to spread the word. ~Maise~ :)

Posted by: Maise Random at July 18, 2008 5:59 PM
                                                               

While all campaigns are important to me, right now I'd have to say the one i am working the hardest on is "cut class not frogs". I wont dissect this year, and i don't think anyone should ever have to.

Posted by: LeRae at July 18, 2008 6:06 PM
                                                               

The Circus campaign is closest to my heart, I have personally witnesses elephant cruelty myself and have attended 16 protests on it. Against the ringling brothers, second is fur because of how unneeded it is.

Posted by: Tom Wigglesworth at July 18, 2008 6:39 PM
                                                               

My favorite campaign is the fur is dead campaign, because i hate the idea wearing fur. Also when i went to this mall in a small town in Texas. Every single girl there was wearing something made out of fur, fur lined boots, jackets, the works. I seriously just wanted to pour red paint all over them and yell how do you think the animals feel about you wearing their fur. but since I didn't have any paint and there was mall police I couldn't. So yeah I really hate fur.

I think the KFCruelty Campaign is closest to me because the first KFC was opened in my home state (Yea, i know, nothing to be proud of!). Most people consider KFC to be a great addition to Kentucky and its history but I know (and try to show as many others as I can, as well) that this is not true. This cruelty needs to be exposed.

Posted by: Tracy at July 18, 2008 6:54 PM
                                                               

Cut Class, Not Frogs would be the nearest and dearest campaign to me because: 1 It's wrong to kill any animal purely for the benefit of humans 2 Last year I did cut class and not a frog 3 Frogs are awesome and shouldn't be murdered and mutilated

Posted by: grace at July 18, 2008 7:14 PM
                                                               

i think that all of the campains are important because they help all animals keep their lives. i may be only 14 but i can do a lot to help thanks to all of the campains but if i had to choose i would pick the fight the circus one. i went to the circus when i was 10 and i got to go down under the autatorium to see the animals and i saw a man whip the elephant hard because it wouldnt stay in the same place for its bath. i wanted to leave right away and my mom made me stay i cryed every time i saw a animal so now i go to a circus with only acrobats and clowns that comes near my house and i boycott circuses forever. and im a proud vegetarian.

I love the boycott KFC one. It's horrific that millions of chickens are treated so cruelty while KFC is laughing all to the bank. It's so disturbing.I'm glad I've been vegan for years now.

Posted by: Natasha at July 18, 2008 7:21 PM
                                                               

The Fur Is Dead campaign is the most nearest and dearest to me just because fur is extremely cruel yet so unnecessary and there are so many alternatives, yet people still wear fur. It makes no sense and it makes me really angry! I wish fur was illegal (on humans, of course).

Posted by: Kyle at July 18, 2008 7:22 PM
                                                               

i think there all important i'd love to have pins to wear on my smock [my work uniform], im a cashier so i'd be basically advertising my beliefs [i already do] but maybe some one would stop and think how does this poor chicken/ cow think of me making a meal out of it even though i didn't have too? or how did this poor animal feel getting slaughtered? & maybe just maybe they'd go down to produce and pick out something more delicious & less disgusting


i've talked to my co-workers and even boss about my beliefs i don't care if they don't care but im sure as hell bringing it to their attention. i even told someone before "i hope when you die your reincarnated into a pig so you can see what its like. have fun getting slaughtered" it was mean yes but needed

I liked the "Cut class, not frogs" campaign. In 9th grade during lab, we had to dissect frogs! I as so against it! I told my teacher but she said it was part of the curriculum. I couldn't class, I didn't have the heart to run out & get into trouble. In my group, I did nothing but stare. It was so disgusting, yet so cruel! The most horrible part is when the boys in my class poked & prodded the insides! Poor frogs. Now I put the stickers on my binder & folder. My friend got so influenced! =]

The campaign closest to my heart is the "Cut Out Dissection" one. I recently adopted two frogs, and I have learned just how amazing they are. They are very active, and it's interesting to watch them hunt for their food (crickets). They have so many cool traits, like how they drink through their skin. They need love and compassion and are wonderful pets, and it's just not right to cut up your pet, especially with all the alternitives, like online dissection.

different,yet they all swipe me up wanting to make change. I applaud all the campaigns and wish them the best.

i wouldnt be able to choose one campaign. they're all very dear and important to me. i dont approve of people eating/wearing/using and so on, animals.
treating them right is what's important and keeping them on this earth health and happy is the message i'd like to send out.

The PETA campaign closest to my heart is the "Fur is Dead" campaign. I've always kept cats as companians, whether they were from neighbors, shelters, or strays. I love cats. After becoming active in PETA, I found out about the fur trade in China and other places.. and how people are actually selling cat fur. I've never agreed withthe wearing of fur but this hit me really hard. To imagine someone putting the fur of my babies on themselves to look FASIONABLE?! I couldn't believe it. I've made posters and speeches at school to advocate about this terrible tradition of "fashion".

I don't really know wich is my favorite campaign because they are all so very close to my heart. I mean, the Anti KFC is very important to me because they torture chikens just so people can get fatter and get sick out of those chikens who have never seen a good life.

Then there is the Cut Class, Not Frogs campaign. That one is very very important to me because I think it's useless to disect on an animal that was killed just for "learning" but it's actually very pointless, specially if it's in a high school. Kids don't care that much, they just think it's cool to cut an animal (belive me, I'm in high school).

The NO EXPERIMENTING ON ANIMALS is super important to me because is one of the worst tortures I have ever seen. Nazi Germany photos of the concentration camps are the same as labs where they experiment on animals. Horrible stuff. Like a nightmare.

The woof campaing is very important to me because it's true, pigs are like dogs. And not only pigs, but every other animals doesn't deserve to become food. I became vegetarian 11 months ago and I feel better than ever. Meat sucks!!

But i DO belive that the campaign that is nearest to my heart is the "No Fur" campaign. I mean... killing animals in the name of fashion????? that's just plain wrong!. We are not cave men, that's OLD FASHION. It ended a few hundred years ago. And it's just plain bad wat they do to the poor animal. I mean, those coats one day will be thrown away or eaten by bugs, or maybe some stupid girl wants a fur coat that's better looking that the one her parents baught her so they throw it away. It's useless to wear fur. Seriously.

Anyways... My fave campaign is "No Fur" ^_^

Sorry for writing so much.

Anyways please pick me!!! I really really wich I could have those pins. :(

i love the anti fur campaign becuase when i was twelve, my aunt got me a fur coat, and i immediatly told her that i wouldnt wear it. my mom told me that i should wear it to be nice to my aunt, but i said that i refused to wear fur. my aunt got mad and didnt talk to me for a week becuase of how "ungrateful" i was for that gift, but i stood my ground and she returned it. that is why i thouroghly support the anri fur campaign

My fav is the 'I am Not a Nugget' campaign simply because chickens? They're actually pretty awesome and most definetly weren't made to fit in a deep fryer (along with every other animal out there, folks). So, that's my fave, because animals were never meant to be dipped in batter and packaged in a to-go box.

all are important but i believe the most important to me is the "i am not a nugget" campaign because beating then eating poor defenseless animals for the pleasure of your own taste buds is the most awful selfish action a person can do and just thinking about it disgust me. i would really love to have the "i am not a nugget" pin because i am a vegan and i have a poster to match it. chickens are my favorite farm animal they are the cutest thing and killing them is the worst thought i could ever imagine i have seen the cruel videos of them beating the chickens on peta2.com and iv been trying to think of a plan to try to stop people from eating meat i have a myspace and it is covered with peta things, and it angers me that people obviously don't care for the animals that suffer the cruelty of slater factories. and people have the excuse of saying if you don't eat meat you don't eat protein and you wont have energy but iv been a vegetarian for one year then been a vegan for one year so i haven't eaten meat for two years and am planning of growing my kids to be a vegetarian.that is why i would love to have the "i am not a nugget' pin

Naming only one peta2 campaign as "the most important" to me is an extremely difficult decision. All of the animal cruelty issues are very special to me, and I believe all are equally important, not just for myself- but the general public as well.

But if I had to chose... I would chose the Anti-Fur campaign. Campaigning against fur is very important, mostly because I think the public doesn't realize just how cruel fur is. If they knew how badly the animal is treated and tortured up to their death--they might think twice about wearing fur. Getting the word out is extremely important. So I'm thankful that Peta and peta2 is around to show us all the wrongs of animal cruelty.

it would be the fur is dead campaign because only animals should wear fur. that is a sick and cruel thing to do

i think the anti-fur campaign is most important to me because an animals fur looks wayyyyy more better on the animal it came from than on a person...it looks sooo dumb!!
haha
:]
and killing a beautiful animal for its fur is wrong because every animal deserves a chance at life...besides lots of animals have died because theyre getting hunted for their fur and its happening too much now and soon those animals are gana get extinct and it makes me sad...:'/

stoopid hunters they should get a real job..>:O

choosing only one cause is hard...(because I feel all these causes are equally important) but the 'no fur' campaign is the most vital to my being...It is heartbreaking how anyone can torture animals just so they can wear something so stupid as a fur coat!!! I can't believe that any person could condone such an act of stupidity as skining an animal (a living creature) ALIVE!!! I can't believe we have so many barbaric people on this planet! I'm also extremely against mars candy...testing on animals is wrong!!! Companies test on animals because they feel that it is alright because they think animals are of a lower life form... They feel that because animals cannot tell us that they are in excrutiating pain that it is okay for them to torture them...but they classify them as a lower life form due to the fact they cannot communicate the same as a grown human does... (now to an even more barbaric point, but true)...Well what about human babies? These companies prey on defensless animals because they don't communicate the same...but a baby doesn't communicate the same, so are they considered a lower life form? I'm obviously not ever suggesting to use these horrific tests on defensless babies, but why on earth would anyone want to prey on defensless animals?! BOYCOTT ANIMAL TESTING!! Its immoral and really not needed...why should we end an animals life so we can get a new candybar or a caffene fix?!

I believe all of the PETA campaigns are very important. The one that I hold most near and dear to my heart is the 'go veg' campaign. I try to educate everyone I meet and everyone close to me about the dangers of eating meat both to the body and the environment. There would be no animal cruelty if the whole world was vegan. This is the most important campaign to me because its the root the misery that animals go through. Once everyone learns that we are smart enough to leave these defenseless animals alone, this world will be a great place.

I love the "I am not a nugget" campaign, because I am so sick of people telling me "I don't eat meat...only chicken". HELLOOOOOO!! A chicken is a animal just as much as a dog or a cow is...Chicken do not have nuggets....and always remember "Wings are for flying...not frying!

The KFC campaign--because it tastes so good--until i thought about it.

Posted by: margaret herrin at July 19, 2008 7:00 AM
                                                               

I would have to say the KFC campaign, because so man chickens are ruthlessly slaughtered each year. I remember that the only meat I used to eat a while ago was chicken. And when my mother gave me pork instead of chicken, I became an actual vegetaian because I finally realized that chickens do suffer the most. However, KFC crosses the line much further than that. Live scalding? Cutting off beaks while they are still concious? Abusing them just for fun? KFC is one of the most thick-headed companies and we should do all we can to stop it.

Tough question! One of my favourite Peta2 campaigns in the recent Woof! one because I've always been telling people how much pigs are like dogs and now that Peta2 backs me up people actually believe me!
However, the Peta2 campaign that is closest to my heart is animal testing because I have a medical phobia so the thought of anyone (human or non-human) being subjected to medical tests makes me feel physically sick and even more so because testing on non-human animals is completely unnecessary.

I think that the "Cut Class, Not Frogs" campaign is especially important, because it's ridiculous that public school include mutilating animals as part of their curriculum. The need to cut dissection of modern education is very important to me.

Posted by: Kim at July 19, 2008 10:51 AM
                                                               

I would have to say that my favourite campaign is the frog dissection because last year I had to do dissections except it was on fetal pigs. It was so discusting and my group had to do all the work.

The No Fur campaign is closest to my heart. I just don't understand why clothes containing fur are of such importance. There are plenty of suitable clothes that don't contain an animal so I just find fur to be an unnecessary addition to the fashion industry and an unnecessary source of animal suffering. In campaigning against it, I believe that other people will also realise this and stop buying fur.

I think the "I am not a nugget" button is the most important because people are killing defenseless animals that have lived a life of misery and pain for 5 minutes of 'joy' while eating it.

My favorite peta2 campain is the Powerd By Tofu. Im a selfproclaimed chef and I love cooking vegan dishes. It gives me a chance to show my friends that they can pig out on really good food and not be eating nasty dead animals. Its cool to see how supprise they get when they find out Tofu is NOT moldy toe jam! You know what they say, the only way to a persons brain is through their stomach! lol

I think my favorite campaign is the No Fur one.
My reason is because i cant even imagine the pain and suffering each animal goes through when they are getting skinned alive. It really cuts deep when i see someone wearing fur or leather. Its even worse when the person who is wearing it is fully informed about what has happened but still doesn't care.

The Woof! campaign is nearest and dearest to my heart. It's message is beautiful because it asks everyone to think about the differences and similarities between dogs and pigs. This is great because it can be taken further to include all animals. It is one way of spreading the message of peace because all animals are living creatures and we should respect them by allowing them to live their lives!

Posted by: Lena at July 19, 2008 2:08 PM
                                                               

Powered by Tofu because there is no more powerful social action than to stop participating in cruelty and adopting a vegan diet NOW.

My favorite is the "KFC" because they want you to belive that they take "Really GOOD" care of there animals. Also they want the public to buy from them but they abuse the chickens. They need to stop abusing the chickens if they want more customers.

Posted by: Amber at July 19, 2008 2:36 PM
                                                               

The KFC campaign is very important because the thought of helpless animals being unnecessarily tortured sends chills through my spine. There really is no humane way to kill, but their almost sadistic practices are awful!

Posted by: Sheridan at July 19, 2008 2:59 PM
                                                               

The campaign that is closest to my heart is the new woof campaign. I think I love it because when I first got a peta booklet, I was so suprised that dogs and pigs are so alike. I couldn't belive that I used to eat pigs!!! I look at my dog and how much she is like a pig, and I think wow, I'd never eat my dog so why would a eat a smart pig?

The one closest to my heart is the no fur campaign. Fur is so useless to humans. Only the animals deserve to have it. We don't need it. There are so many synthetic materials for us to use that it's not even funny. And the animals only have their skin, and we don't have the right to take it from them. =D

I think that being living a vegetarian lifestyle has done nothing but good. It improves my health, the environment, and most importantly stops cruelty. The problem is that I am one person, I try to spread the word through my school. I have Peta stickers decorating binders, folders, and my locker and when people ask about them it is a great oppurtunity to spread the word. In my Foods class I prepared the Chicken Silverstein Style from a Peta pamplet and had 45 minutes to explain why a vegetarian lifestyle is a better one. These buttons are just another way to spread the word and I'd like to participate in that. Also, those pins are very cute.

Honestly; all campaigns are dear to me :) I have protested for each one, mainly KFCruelty since thats the one nearest to me. I love saving animals & geting the word out there. It means a lot to me when i change someones mind about eating animals / wearing them / testing them. My entire life is dedicated to animals. I love you peta :) Thanks for changing my life for the better.

All peta campaigna are very important to me.Esp NO FUR. Who gives anyone any right to wear any animal from dog to horse to sheep to lion to pig to frog.That should not be a choice or an option it should be classified as first degree murder.Animals are no different than humans,They even make a hell of a better friend than most humans do.PROTECT THEIR RIGHTS!!!

I like all of the PETA campaigns but if i had to choose, i'd probably choose the anti-fur campaign. The "INVESTIGATION INTO CHINESE FUR FARMS" video really hit me. Some dogs and cats that still have COLLARS on are STOLEN for fur harvesting in China. These are people's companions we are talking about! It's inconsiderate to HUMANS BEINGS AND THE ANIMALS BEING SKINNED! And it's not like the animals are treated nicely before their skin is STOLEN either! Numerous animals are trapped together in small wired cages. On top of that, they are dropped, kicked and beaten multiple times while shipping them to and from different places. Even when they are bleeding and whining through their sharp wired cages, they are ignored. The aniamls are finally let out to be hung upside down to be skinned. Most of these animals are still ALIVE during that process! I can't imagine how painful it is to be skinned alive and waiting to bleed to death. I am SO glad PETA exposed this to the world and work hard to stop top fashion houses and other apparel companies to stop using and buying fur for their clothes. I have already showed this video to some people and like me, they show utter disgust towards what some heartless people are capable of.

I like the "No Fur" best because I have two cats and I learned from this site that, in China, they use cat and dog fur for clothing; and say it's another animal. Plus, I think it's cruel to rip animals fur off.

I've been a vegetarian for a month now, and enjoyed it so much ! not only does my body feel great, but I know that I'm helping to save the animals I care so much about. I'm in love with all of these buttons, and think there amazing. I feel shy to talk about / start up my own conversations about me being a Vegetarian, and buttons and stickers are a great way to get them started. Being in highschool I have lots of friends who are interested in why I do these things. I'm hoping the buttons would help.

My favorite campaign would have to be, "Cut Class Not Frogs." I am extremely against dissection and I love how this campaign stands so strongly for it. After I learned about this campaign I posted posters around my school, left stickers in appropriate places, and informed my fellow students about why dissection is wrong. This campaign helped myself as a person and also changed my friends point of views!

I Feel That The "No Fur" is closer to me heart because they way that the animals get skinned alive and the way they are just treated like nothing and get tossed away right after. I Fell Like Fur is so not worth it because these animals can live if people were just willing to at least use PHO FUR. I DONT see a difference in PHO and REAL Fur so why not go PHO and save animals.
