Valentine’s Day Treats That Help Animals: PETA’s Essential List

Valentine’s Day means something different to each individual. For the comfortably coupled, it’s a chance to show your sweetheart how much you love them. For the satisfied and single, it’s an opportunity to share some love with friends and family. If you’re a compassionate, caring supporter of PETA, you probably also have several animal friends in your life you care about deeply and wish to honor with a gift of kindness.

This Valentine’s Day, celebrate love and tenderness toward all by ensuring that your gifts are vegan and cruelty-free. And yes, while a rousing rendition of “I Will Always Ruff You” might help show your loved ones how much you care for them, perhaps one of these animal-friendly gifts will come in handy, too.

PETA Presents

Looking for a compassionate gift that gives twice? PETA Presents are smart, virtual gifts that support our life-changing work for animals. By purchasing a gorgeous e-card, you can help animals while also providing your cutie with an even cuter present. The special Valentine’s Day line of PETA Presents includes the “I Love ‘Ewe’!” card, which supports our work for sheep, and the “Friends FURever” card, which supports our campaigns against the cruel fur industry.
