Save our furry friends! This is how it ends :(

 Hello everyone,
As you probably know, this month's cause is animal cruelty and today we're going to be looking into animal testing. 
Millions of animals are poisoned, blinded, and killed each year in cruel experiments so that companies can test their products such as medicines and cosmetics. 

Since 1998 there has been a ban against testing beauty products and cosmetics on animals.

BUT did you know that they've started letting a few companies test cosmetics on animals all over again? 

This is terrible - because we've already got millions of cosmetic products, and we don't need anymore, and we don't need them to be tested on animals. It's not fair on the animals, because if the animals could speak, then they would be screaming 'no!'. Animals don't do this to us - so why are we doing it to them? And how is their life worth any less than human lives?

What can we do to help?
Instead of buying cosmetics, like lip balm or skincare, you can buy a 'make at home' set with safe ingredients, or you can buy brands that are definitely animal cruelty free (they might have an icon that tells you they are not tested on animals). 

What do you think about animal testing, and do you have any ideas on how to help? Put it in the comments!

Thank you,
Meadow Joy xxx

    Totally agree. We should be treating animal life with far more respect than we currently do. If they could only speak we might think twice about some of the things that we humans do to them, especially in relation to unnecessary cosmetic products.

    Thanks! I agree, if animals could speak it'd be a different situation.

    You’re so right Meadow Joy, we need to think before we buy and choose from the many products available that are cruelty free - look out for the leaping bunny logo

Don't be cruel, animals rule!

 Hello everyone! Last time I wrote about animal testing, and today I wanted to talk about people having pets and then not looking after them properly, or even being cruel to them.  Sometimes people think they're being nice to let an animal live in their home, but actually they might not be looking after the animal properly. For example not giving it enough exercise, or toys, so its bored all the time, which can lead to bad habits. Sometimes they might not have enough money for an animal at all, but they still have one.  Then there's people who are really cruel. Some people put hats on their pets to take photos to get likes on social media. Some people hurt their animals on purpose. There's also some puppy breeders who just want to make money, and end up not thinking about the dogs health. How to help: If you see anyone doing anything cruel to an animal, you should speak up. Even if you get it wrong, at least you have tried. If you have any pets at home, make sure you are ...

Welcome!

 Hi everyone, and welcome to my blog! I am very excited to write this and I hope you are enjoying reading it! This blog is going to have monthly causes, a cause for every month. A cause is something that is wrong in the world and needs to be fixed, like climate change, or maybe animal cruelty. I will post about it throughout the month, and change the background picture accordingly. Each post will have a little about me and what I've been up to, and a lot about the cause and how we can help. Remember, small voices, big differences! Since there isn't much left of this month, we'll be starting next month and I just chose a nice picture for now. Let me know in the comments what you want next month's cause to be. I started this blog because I want to look back and know that I changed the world in the best way imaginable. You can join me on my journey to make the world a better place! By the way, I've made up a beautiful nickname, I love it! Hope you enjoyed reading, Mead...
