Billie Eilish – animal advocacy
Billie Eilish is known for her love for animals and for her advocacy of animal rights causes. She is a vegan and has been an outspoken critic of the dairy and meat industries, as well as the use of mink fur in the beauty and fashion industries.
In 2021, she convinced fashion boutique Oscar de la Renta to stop using fur in their designs when the company dressed her for the Met Gala.
“I find it shocking that wearing fur isn’t completely outlawed at this point in 2021,” Eilish said at the time, according to PETA. “I’m honored to have been a catalyst and to have been heard on this matter. I urge all designers to do the same.” She was honored by PETA in 2019.
In 2020, she fostered pit bulls during the covid-19 quarantine and ended up adopting one for good.
It’s always heartbreaking to lose a pet, especially one you’ve had since childhood. Our hearts are with Billie Eilish during this difficult time.
Please share this story in memory of Pepper 💔🌈
