NEW IPHONE APP HELPING FIGHT ANIMAL CRUELTY

Written by admin on May 18th, 2010

FROM finding out what the weather is like in your area to finding where you parked your car there are millions of  mobile phone applications to choose from these days and now there’s one that can assist you in helping animals!

The People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) has recently joined forces with Hot Frog creative to develop a cruelty-free shopping mobile application, which they’ve called the BNB (Be Nice to Bunnies) app.

Specially designed for pet lovers and gadget users, this new app has a searchable database which is updated regularly and detects animal friendly brands, manufacturers and products. This basically means that iPhone, iPad or iPod users can now use the BNB app to make informed decisions on buying everything from makeup, hair products, household cleaners to even dog treats and determine whether or not these thousands of companies are using animal testing.

Other features of this animal friendly app include the ability to check if products are vegan friendly and it also allows you to tag those companies or products that are animal friendly so you can make an animal friendly super shopping list.

Meanwhile following a long line of celebrity PETA supporters like Pamela Anderson, Eva Mendes and Khloe Kardashian, star of MTV’s series “The Hills,” Stephanie Pratt is the new face of the latest PETA campaign advertising the new application.

“Guinea pigs and rats and bunnies are being blinded, poisoned, and burned for useless experiments that are not needed,” Pratt said regarding her motivation to take part in the new campaign.

So for those of you interested the “Be Nice to Bunnies” app is now available to purchase from the iTunes for around 1.59 euro with PETA receiving a percentage of the purchased app’s profits from Hot Frog Creative.
