Pangolin Necklace-Save the Animals and Humans too...Go Vegan

As an artist, I always feel like it is my job to find a way to express how I feel about current issues & topics that affect us all & turn those feelings into an art piece that makes the viewer see an issue or current event in a new light or just to get them thinking in a way that maybe they haven’t before ...so in this crazy time in history that we are all in I had to make a piece bringing to light the issue that eating animals caused the Covid-19 pandemic...specifically the eating of pangolins...I made a pangolin necklace in recycled aluminum which reads”Save the animals & Humans too end wild meat trade” on the front & “Go Vegan” on the back...Click image to shop.

See the list of all the other zoonotic pandemics caused by eating animals...it’s time to go vegan if not for the animals or the environment then maybe your own self preservation or that of your loved ones...If you would like to learn more about this click Covid 19 image or link below to the amazing article Vegan to End the Threat of Pandemics by Rebecca Moore http://www.hvvegfest.org/vegan-to-end-the-threat-of-pandemics

Sunday Prayers

Reflecting day....with the sights & sounds of spring & this lovely Prayer for Humans on behalf of the Animals by Colleen Patrick-Goudreau... . “My hope is that we can navigate through this world and our lives with the grace and integrity of those who need our protection. May we have the sense of humor and liveliness of the goats;may we have the maternal instincts and nature of the hens and the sassiness of the roosters. May we have the gentleness and strength of the cattle, and the wisdom,humility, and serenity of the donkeys. May we appreciate the need for community as do the sheep and choose our companions as carefully as do the

rabbits. May we have the faithfulness and commitment to family of the geese,the adaptability and affability of the ducks. May we have the intelligence,loyalty,and affection of the pigs and the inquisitiveness,sensitivity,and playfulness of the Turkeys. . . My hope is that we learn from the animals what it is we need to become better people” . . From 🙏🏼Prayer for Humans on Behalf of The Animals by Colleen Patrick-Goudreau (Vegan’s Daily Companion Book)@joyfulvegan #veganprayers #veganpoems#colleenpatrickgoudreau #veganwriter#veganlife #vegansofig #veganshare#handsawnjewelry #handmaderings#handmadejewelry #veganjewelry#veganjeweler #vegannecklace#veganbooks #veganauthor#veganlifestyle #animalrights#animalrightsbooks #veganforlife#veganfortheanimals #gooutside#reflectingtime #naturelover#treeagate #treehugger#springiscoming #books #animallovers#artisanjewelry #artisanring

Cows have Friends!

Cows are like people they value their family and friendships....According to the book The Inner World of Farm Animals by Amy Hatkoff . “Cows form close relationships with several cows of their own age or with whom they have been raised. They spend most of their time together, standing by one another, sharing food, coordinating activities, and grooming one another. . Studies have shown that being together provides cows with emotional and social support helping them feel secure, particularly in times of stress. When cows are with their friends, they are more resilient and less frightened by new situations. . Being separated is stressful and has a negative impact on their health, well-being etc. When separated, cows will call out and walk back and forth rapidly in an effort to reconnect with one another. This is similar to human babies crying when separated from their parents..."

✔️So next time you drive by a field of cows or a transport truck full of cows on the way to a slaughterhouse realize they are not just mindless, emotionless grass eating machines that were put here for you to eat....remember they, like you are hanging out with close family or their friends and cherish their lives with them just as much as you cherish yours...
