The Roots

Whoever said beggars can’t be choosers obviously never encountered a vegan who asked for a piece of bread with dairy-free butter.

Questlove, musician with The Roots, Tweeted about his recent experience attempting to appease a homeless man who asked for a bite to eat.

“Um Homeless w/ dietary preferences? dude outside starbucks asked for $, I got him coffee & sandwich. He says “I’m vegetarian.””

Hey, just because you’re short on change doesn’t mean you’re short on principle or taste, right? Who’s says hard times means eating food hard on your body, animals and earth?

Food pantries often stock veg-friendly shelf-stable foods like beans, legumes and pasta and sauces. Some religious groups that advocate vegetarian diets, like the Seventh Day Adventists, will often have faux meats and soy products available at food banks they run from their churches.

Tzu Chi, a food pantry located in Cedar Grove, New Jersey, only stocks vegetarian items in accordance with its earth-friendly principles of reducing planet waste and conserving the environment.

Queen Brian May

Queen guitarist Brian May comforted a cat during its last moments on Earth.

According to The Lancaster Guardian, May was driving when he approached the cat lying in the road. He spent about a half an hour with it, stroking it until it died.

According to one source, about 5.4 million cats are hit by cars a year, which is more than the number euthanized in shelters. Pet owners can completely prevent this tragedy by simply keeping their cats–and dogs–inside. Invest in an invisible fence if your cat is the kind to enjoy fresh air.

Below is a video in which a veterinarian demonstrates ways to protect a cat that has been hit by a vehicle until it can get proper veterinary care. This is important for stabilization reasons–any movement involving the spine could result in fatal damage.The Dr. also discusses common injuries that take place during cat-vehicle collisions. Many cats turn to face the car just before they are hit, resulting in brain trauma and altered mental status.
