Living Cruelty Free

My name is Emily, and I’m a cruelty-freeist — I’m really opposed to causing needless animal suffering. This blog chronicles my spending a year (and counting!) of buying toiletries made by companies whose final products AND initial ingredients were never, ever tested on animals. Other than that, I’m your regular run of the mill vegetarian trying to go vegan (but I am a strong supporter of humane omnivorism since I used to be a carnivore — I don’t think you’re scum if you eat meat, I just hope you’ll consider switching to not supporting horrific factory farming conditions). I live in the San Francisco bay area, I have a dog I cook food for, and I hope I can help you if you’re thinking of adding more cruelty-freeism to your life!

February 2008 Digest

Ah, the monthly wrap up. How has February gone by so quickly?

This month I blogged about a number of cruelty-free cosmetic/household products:

Juice Organics (4/5 stars) — Nourishing Cleanser, Vitamin Antioxidant Serum, and SPF 30 Light Tint Moisturizer

Biokleen Dishwasher Detergent (5/5 stars)

John Paul Pet (Paul Mitchell) Tooth and Gum Wipes (4/5 stars)

Cruelty-free Shopping, Anyone?

I mentioned an anti-animal testing petitition:

Mars, Inc. Tortures Animals

I mentioned a humane farming petition and a list of 100% vegetarian cheeses:

Humane Farming: You Can Petition to Put the California Prevent Farm Animal Cruelty Initiative on the Ballot at Your Local Whole Foods

100% Vegetarian Cheeses

And finally, I asked for advice about what to do if you suspect an animal sanctuary of selling animals to animal testing facilities that will abuse them:

Advice Needed: What Do You Do if You Suspect a Sanctuary of Selling Rescued Animals to an Animal-Testing Facility?
