Paul McCartney has backed a campaign by the Humane Society International to end animal testing for cosmetic products.

The HSI’s Be Cruelty-Free campaign calls for an end to cosmetics testing all over the world, something that has already taken place in Europe, with new laws set to be in effect in 2013 that will ban the sales of newly animal-tested cosmetics.

“The ugly truth about testing beauty products on animals is that it causes them unimaginable pain and suffering. If every cosmetic tested on rabbits or mice had a photo on the packaging showing these animals with weeping swollen eyes and inflamed skin, I believe everyone would leave cruelty on the shelf and go for the cruelty-free option instead,” Sir Paul said.

Bret Michaels has a collection of pet accessories now available at Petsmart.

The Pets Rock collection includes toys, beds, clothes, collars and leashes and feeding bowls, all displaying a rocker image, making your pet the baddest ass on the block because it eats from a bowl with an “Every Rose Has Its Thorn” theme.

Michaels said he was inspired to create the collection out of love for his own pets.

“In life, they bring me a certain peace of mind,” Michaels said. “There’s a sense of unconditional love I get from my dogs – or, as crazy as it sounds, my rats – being around me.”
