Vegetarian Star

Steve-O has known for some time that animals don’t belong on his plate.

But the actor recently opened up to US Magazine on how his pets have helped him overcome a serious addiction.

He credits his two rescue dogs, Walter and Bernie, for helping him get sober.

“You know, the way I feel about it, and it might sound a little weird as far as comparisons go, but getting a dog reminds me of getting a cell phone because there’s that overwhelming feeling when I first got a cell phone of ‘How did I ever live without this and what would I ever do if I lost it?'” said Steve-O.

Smart USA PETA Spay and Neuter Wrap

An environmentally friendly car with a message to save millions of cats and dogs from euthanasia? Only the marketing folks at PETA would think of something so clever!

Smart USA, the maker of the compact, fuel-efficient two person vehicle, has partnered with Sanrio to bring treehuggers car wraps with the Hello Kitty logo on them.

PETA is asking Smart USA to take things a bit further and place a message about spaying and neutering pets on the wraps.

Hulu has a pet channel, an all in one stop on the Internet for every good animal show, from Dog Town and Cesar Millan‘s Dog Whisperer to movies like The Lost Stallion to the clay animation of Wallace and Gramit.

It’s the Animal Planet of the Internet.

Like other Hulu shows, some of the episodes, clips and movies are more recent than others.

The clip below, from the Sundance Channel’s Big Ideas for a Small Planet, is about a woman who owns a natural pet foods store (ran with the assistance of her two Saint Bernards?).

Other clips from the channel feature the stories of dogs rescued in Iraq.

A recent article from a Northwestern University blog featured green pet ideas, from food to cleaning supplies.

Vegetarian and vegan pet food exists for both cats and dogs, but regardless if you choose to make your pet go veg, it’s always best to feed your animal food that is natural, organic and contains the fewest processed ingredients, according to Kelsie Dolezal, a certified veterinary technician at The Chicago Center for Veterinary Medicine, adding that it’s not difficult to “make your own.”
