Voices for Animals

Welcome to Voices For Animals! This is a place where animal rights can be represented and discussed freely. I plan to add all kinds of fun things to the group including contests, news pieces, petitions and who knows what else! So make yourself at home.

So… who are you? Why are you here? How did you get involved in animal rights? Yes, I’m nosy – but I also think it’s enriching for us to all share our experiences. After all, we do learn from each other!

This is a place to post friendly messages, questions, brainfarts, etc. :)

Here are some great places to meet fellow animal lovers. Feel free to add others you know of and recommend!

If you donate to, volunteer at or otherwise support a charity, tell us about it here! Give us details! Provide a link and tell us about what you do, why you do it, why you chose that charity ~ and anything else you want to share!!
