Vegetarian Star

Mickey Rourke is carrying his balls across continents.

The actor has agreed to represent PETA is a campaign to encourage spaying and neutering pets, “Hall the Balls to Fix Your Dogs,” in India. Billboards with a similar tagline were placed in California last year.

“Rourke was so moved when he learned about the dog and cat overpopulation crisis in India that he jumped at the chance to challenge people to get their animals sterilized,” PETA said in a press release.

According to the animal rights group, India has about 25 million homeless dogs that roam the streets.

Mickey Rourke‘s new girlfriend, Russian model and actress Anastasia Makarenko, better not complain about sharing a romantic evening with his Chihuahuas.

Rourke said if it comes between a canine and a woman, it’s a pretty easy decision.

He takes his dogs to dinner with him at restaurants and won’t eat anywhere unless the establishment serves up a doggie bag with his dinner plate.

“We like to go to dinner together,” Mickey told animal rights group People of the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA). “I just like to go out with them to restaurants, to take walks with them.”

According to Chowhound, the state of Florida became the first in the U.S. to enact a law allowing dogs in the indoor areas of restaurants, though many at least allow them in outdoor patio areas.

A good thing, as this may decrease the chances of a pet suffering to death in a hot car on an afternoon when its owner chooses to grab a bite to eat.

“The most important thing about having a dog and loving a dog is keeping the dog its whole natural life,” he added. “It’s not about saying four months later, ‘Oh I met some girl and she’s allergic to it’. No man, you can’t do that. You gotta get rid of the girl. She gonna leave you eventually anyway.”

Canines before cuties, man. It’s the only way to go.
