Heathens and Pagans for the Horses: Can you just take a moment for the horses?

Why we're here

We are taking a stand against horse slaughter returning to the US and are striving to stop the transportation of horses to other countries for slaughter. Some of us are working in those other countries as well.

We are taking this stance as Pagans and Heathens, at a time when it seems some have decided that eating slaughtered horse meat in ritual is somehow cool, edgy and "ancestral." Therefore we want to show that that minority does not represent all of the Pagan and Heathen communities. Many of us worship Horse Deities, many of us are horse people who may see our horses as sacred charges who we care for to honor these Deities. Not by killing but by striving to give them good lives.

Can you just take a moment for the horses?

Over the past few months, with the USDA ban on horse slaughter inspection lifted, we have seen several attempts in the US to start slaughtering horses. So far all have failed....but this fight can not keep up location by location. Because we can't let a single one slip through, we cannot take that chance.

But more than that, all along horses have been shipped, in miserable conditions to Canada and Mexico to be slaughtered. This has been going on. It's way passed time to stop it.

Please just take a moment to go to theASPCA Advocacy Center where you can find out if your Senators ares cosponsors or not and easily send a note, with some personal additions thanking them or urging them. It's simple, it only take a moment.

Let's make this the end of horse slaughter in America, once and for all. The crazies who want to kill horses are fighting hard, we need to fight back harder. It's time this war ended.
