Taraji P. Henson’s New PETA Campaign Encourages Us To Be An Angel for Animals!

23455Is it just me or has PETA, been very successful in gathering a bevy of celebrities to drop their clothes for the cause? Hey, but more power to them to getting out awareness of their cause, the ethical treatment of animals. In a campaign that over the years has spawned nudeness from Wendy Williams to Waka Flaka Fame to Oscar Nominee and everybody’s homegirl, sweetheart Actress Taraji P. Henson who has posed nude for the campaign in the past. This campaign was showed a different side of Taraji who stars in CBS’ Person of Interest . Taraji P. Henson is taking a personal interest in helping dogs that spend their lonely days and cold nights at the end of a chain. Taraji—who stars in a new PETA ad with her beloved canine Uncle Willie—wants to encourage people to bring their dogs indoors, where they will be safe and warm. Taraji makes an undeniable claim, saying, “Dogs, to me, are like children. They are the closest thing to God. They are so pure in their love, and all they do is aim to please.” In addition to having their emotional and social needs completely ignored, dogs who are forced to live at the end of a chain are often deprived of adequate food, water, and veterinary care. They are vulnerable to cruel people and other animals and rarely have sufficient shelter to shield them from harsh weather extremes. Chained dogs are also much more likely to be aggressive and to attack—endangering children and the public at large—if they break free. Chaining is arguably one of the cruelest things that you can do to an animal who wants and deserves nothing more than to curl up at your feet at night, greet you with a happy face, and be a part of your family.

In her previous ad, Taraji urged people to be comfortable in their own skin and let animals keep theirs. She is already an angel for animals, but in this ad, shot by famed photographer Don Flood, she has the wings to prove it.
