Recently there was a dustup on Facebook over an an

Recently there was a dustup on Facebook over an animal rescue in South Carolina. The rescue is going to serve chicken and pork at their fundraiser 😬 Needless to say, they got a lot of pushback. I offered to speak with them. Several people offered to make vegan food or pay for it. But they were sticking to their guns (so to speak).⁠
⁠
But it got me thinking 🤔 If an ANIMAL RESCUE isn't able to see the cognitive dissonance in saving and taking care of SOME farmed animals but eating others, what hope do most of us have to see the light? ⁠
⁠
It speaks to how indoctrinated we are to eating animals. It starts at birth. How many of y'all were raised vegan? I'm sure not many. We're taught that some animals are food. And think of the ads we're bombarded with. Dozens promoting meat and dairy every day. And the horrors of animal farming and the environmental destruction it causes are kept hidden from us. Big Ag sees to that, with Ag-Gag Laws, slick advertising, and industry-led "research."⁠
⁠
I'm so proud of y'all who decided meat and dairy are off the menu 👏🏾 I'm also proud of y'all who are eating less and less. And those who aren't on board yet, please do your research and you'll find the many reasons why meat and dairy can't be part of a sustainable future.⁠

Every time I tell the story about “floating dead

Every time I tell the story about “floating dead, hacked up animal bodies in a bowl”, folks listen 🎧 intently to hear the rest of the story. And even though I’ve told this story over and over again, a new nuance always surfaces—I get more and more clarity about the extreme cognitive dissonance that plagues cattle ranchers, and other animal farmers! The story is vivid and told with great details.

Join the ZOOM PARTY October 30th and celebrate my 7 YEAR VEGANNIVERSARY! Yep, I went vegan on Halloween 2014 🧙‍♀️ pumpkin 🎃 and I’m clear that the real haunted house needs no man made sights, costumes or screams - the real haunted house is a SLAUGHTER HOUSE which naturally delivers a blood bath of slit throats, terror, bloody butchers, and hanging corpses!

MEMBERS come FREE to the ZOOM PARTY and EVERYONE is welcome! $20 donation to come party with us on October 30th

- OR - BECOME A MEMBER for as little as $5.00 a month and be our guest!!

We can’t wait to to see all of you there! Costumes encouraged- Let’s party……ZOOM!

The compassion for animals arrived in my heart FOU

The compassion for animals arrived in my heart FOUR YEARS before veganism struck me as a compatible lifestyle — that’s eight cycles of calves going to the sale barn. My identity was untethered and somehow, being married to a cattle rancher never settled me into the role of a “good” rancher’s wife. I identified with the mama cows, and now they are part of a sanctuary and never have to watch the red trailer leave with their babies ever again. “No more babies in that red trailer”!I have built around me a loving environment that has not only converted what was once a Texas cattle ranch into a vegan sanctuary, but that rancher husband of mine was transformed into a vegan partner in our unique non-profit! Don’t y’all tell me what’s impossible!

And YOU can become part of the Rowdy magic. Follow the link in our Instagram bio to our website where you can become a member, sponsor your favorite animal, and stay in touch with our campaigns and events (my veganniversary Zoom party is next week — tickets available NOW!).

I’ve always loved Halloween 🎃and it’s befitting that my vegan birthday happened on THE DAY OF THE DEAD ☠️ in 2014. And how appropriate that it was a [witch’s voice] bubbling cauldron of floating, dead, hacked up animal bodies that broke the spell of carnism!⁠

Some of my favorite people are birds! Sealy, Red,

Some of my favorite people are birds! Sealy, Red, Sunrise, Petunia, Betty and Michael Jackson are all SOMEONE- they all have a story- Sealy was surrendered when her “owner” feared for her life when their neighbor threatened to kill her. Red was surrendered along with a smaller flock when a family illness threatened their care. Sunrise,Petunia and Betty were all rescued from cockfighting rings, and Michael was surrendered by a vegan that was forced to move out of state. In the wrong hands, my friends would be reduced to chicken fingers and turkey breasts. I’m so grateful that they are able to show the world their sentience! They are ambassadors for all the others that weren’t so fortunate! Thank you for supporting our work! You make it possible! Thank you members and donors! Become a member today! LINK IN BIO

The easy part of going Meatless Every Day is enjoy

As y'all know, we rescue animals from slaughter an

As y'all know, we rescue animals from slaughter and severe neglect. These are the lucky few of the animals that “made it,” and in order to keep them happy, healthy and radiant we MUST give them a level of medical support beyond the maintenance that is typical of the veterinary industry for farmed animals.⁠
⁠
Sage the goat 🐐 (in the photo) was taken in with a severe mite infestation. Penny Lane 🐖 has a cracked hoof, Demarcus and Leo 🐑 are due for their shearing, Rowdy Girl 🐮 is still being monitored for a mysterious lactation event that created an infection, Nutmeg, Jan & Dusty 🐄, and Sealy the Turkey 🦃 all have to be dewormed, and on and on.⁠
⁠
Your support lets us take the very best care of these farmed animals, who started out life with not much care at all.⁠
⁠
Here's a big, rowdy hug to all who donate any amount to their care!⁠

Rowdy Girl Sanctuary Vet Care Campaign. Health is

Rowdy Girl Sanctuary Vet Care Campaign. Health is so much a part of “sanctuary” and we never want to leave guessing any ailment for lack of funding. Veterinary care is always more complicated than our own health care because we can’t properly ask an animal “Where does it hurt?” or “How long has this been swollen?”   We don’t look forward to the vet visit, but it does create opportunity for the vets themselves to experience the Rowdy Magic...they’re used to poking and prodding a rancher’s product, and here the detached efficiency maintenance stops cold — THESE animals, even if they look, smell, and sound like the usual “FOOD ANIMAL” patient, are FAMILY.

When a vet comes to Rowdy Girl they are so surprised by the maternal care we give farm animals. They are shocked that our cows all have names--AND-- a medical file!! When we have to put one of our animals to rest (like our beloved Big Bird a few weeks ago), the vets are moved by the tears, commitment and heartfelt attention we give them right until the end.

YOU HAVE 3 MORE DAYS to GIVE TOWARDS OUR MUCH NEEDED VET CARE CAMPAIGN. We only have about $1000 more to go to reach our overall $3000 goal!

FOLLOW THE LINK IN OUR BIO TO DONATE TODAY - hugs to all of you and a BIG THANK YOU to those that have committed funds to our vet care drive.
