Ady Gil, animal lover, founder of American Hi Definition and Sweetwater Digital and benefactor to the Sea Shepherd Society, is aiming to save more turkeys this year with your help.

From now until November 25th, Gil will sponsor an additional turkey for every one sponsored through Farm Sanctuary’s Adopt-A-Turkey program.

He originally offered to sponsor another turkey up to $20,000, but after that amount was raised in just a few short days, he raised the offer to $50,000!

“Thanksgiving is a symbolic holiday,” said Gil, in a press release. “I don’t believe we should celebrate by killing another species. Every animal, including turkeys, deserves to see the light of day, go to sleep and wake up without finding themselves on someone’s plate. This is a time to show people that we can celebrate without causing suffering.”

Every animal needs a “whisperer.” Ellen DeGeneres and Ginnifer Goodwin may not know all the inner workings of the turkey mind yet, but theses ladies do know enough about the animals to realize they’re incredible sentient beings who deserve their own Thanksgiving feast and not spread across the table as one.

Ellen is serving as the Adopt-A-Turkey ambassador for Farm Sanctuary’s annual drive that raises money to care for turkeys on the grounds and last year, Miss Goodwin had the privilege of serving as bird publicist.

Between the two turkey whisperers, who would you rather…

Ginnifer Goodwin Funny Farm Sanctuary PSA Outtakes (Video)

Written by Vegetarian Star on Tuesday, November 24th, 2009 in Food & Drink, Videos.

Ginnifer Goodwin is starring in Farm Sanctuary’s Adopt-A-Turkey PSA this year and it took more than one take to get a decent 30 second commercial.

Here are some hilarious Farm “bloopers” with Ginnifer and her cow and turkey co-stars.

“A little bit more ladylike,” Ginnifer advises as a turkey eats apples from a bowl.

Then there’s the cow who takes a break to “lick its ball.”

The DVD series of these would sell more than Girls Gone Wild.

A Single Man premiere held in Los Angeles

Ginnifer Goodwin has confirmed her Thanksgiving meal this year will be a Tofurky.

No surprise, considering she’s the spokesperson for Farm Sanctuary’s Adopt-A-Turkey program.

About her recent visit to the Watkins Glen, New York sanctuary, Ginnifer said, “I grew fairly attached to a turkey named Magnolia. And there’s a badass goat who likes to play good-natured butting-heads games with humans. I dug her.’’

Every veg needs a badass goat when trying to explain to the most bullheaded meat eater why humans aren’t necessarily designed to eat animals.

Don’t forget you can have your own badass turkey for only $25 through the Farm Sanctuary Adopt-A-Turkey program.

Kellie Pickler And Turkeys Cool With Each Other

Written by Vegetarian Star on Tuesday, October 20th, 2009 in Animal Issues, Celebrity Tweets, Female Singers.

2nd Annual ACM Honors

Kellie Pickler made a Tweet about the new stray animals that keep coming back to her place.

“thanksgiving is right around the corner. funny how all the turkey’s hang out in my yard. I guess they know I’m a vegetarian.”

Ah, must be nice knowing there’s a vegetarian safe haven on the planet in the midst of millions of other turkey beheading Sarah Palin households.

BTW, if no turkeys are showing up in your backyard, you can still have a pet of your own through the Farm Sanctuary Adopt-A-Turkey program. For $25, you can sponsor a turkey living at the sanctuary.

Although it’d be great if you guys could be pen pals, currently calligraphy isn’t taught to the birds on the sanctuary.
