Norfolk, Va. -- PETA has great gift ideas that are as kind to animals as they will be welcome to kind dads—from clothing accessories and cologne that is tested in the petri dish, not in rabbits' eyes, to autographed photos of pro athletes and "meaty" meat-free snacks. Here's a sample of gifts that are guaranteed to please:
- The old standby takes a new turn with stylish, silk-free neckwear from Jaan J. (no silkworms were boiled in their cocoons to produce this material).
- Thinking about a belt, wallet, or new pair of kicks? The best leather-free shoes and accessories are a click away at MooShoes.
- Top-shelf personal-care products are always a hit, and you can't miss with the shaving cream, cologne, and other fine cruelty-free products at Herban Cowboy.
- For a great read, consider Eating Animals by Jonathan Safran Foer, who wrote this compelling book after becoming a father and reexamining his diet.
- Is Dad into sports? Then how about autographed photos or rookie cards of his favorite animal-friendly athletes such as Miami Dolphins running back and vegetarian Ricky Williams or dog-lovers such as Philadelphia Phillies second baseman Chase Utley and Los Angeles Laker Ron Artest?
- If Dad's a meat-and-potatoes kind of guy but you're concerned about what all that fat and cholesterol is doing to his ticker, order a bunch of smoky Tofurky Jurky from incredible Turtle Island Foods and slip a few packages in his golf bag.
"With all the innovative and animal-friendly products on the market, there's no need to settle for the same old, same old this Father's Day," says PETA Executive Vice President Tracy Reiman. "After all, humans aren't the only animals who have dads, so why not give animals a break on Father's Day too?"
