Alexander was a downer at a stockyard - I got him right before Christmas 3 years ago. He was being auctioned off and continued to collapse over and over during the sale, so no one would buy him...He had to have the same surgery as Sonny - the removal of the umbilicus. He also had to have multiple surgeries on his back legs - both joints were infected and the assumption was he could not be able to walk or recover fully. He thankfully beat the odds. He is a very solitary boy - and the tallest of the cattle right now. He loves playing with Sonny and Orlando! - Susie Coston, National Shelter Director, Farm Sanctuary Visit Our Online Store Visit our store to buy t-shirts, vintage hoodies and DVDs.

Even Rosemary’s Italian Greyhounds approve. If you don’t have a “Spiralizer” you can use a potato or vegetable peeler/mandolin to make thin slices of zucchini. This tasty dish is adapted from Mimi Kirk’s recipe, who has developed her own raw version of this Italian classic. This, as well as many others are included in her book Live Raw . “Pasta” Alla Checca 2 large zucchinis 2 large tomatoes, diced, or small cherry tomatoes cut in half 1 clove garlic, minced or crushed 1/2 cup olives (green, kalamata, or italian olives), coarsely chopped 1/4 cup capers 1–2 teaspoons herbs, thyme, rosemary, marjoram, or Italian herbs of choice 15 fresh basil leaves, ribbon- sliced or torn 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil to taste (and you can add lemon juice or white balsamic vinegar) Himalayan salt to taste Black pepper to taste Chili flakes, (optional) Spiralize zucchinis, or use a potato/vegetable peeler and make long flat fettuccine-type noodles. Put tomatoes, garlic, olives, herbs, capers, olive oil, basil, salt and pepper in a large bowl. Place spiralized zucchini on top and toss until well combined. Top with some of the chopped tomatoes, more basil if you like, and sprinkle on Parmesan nut cheese. Cashew Parmesan Cheese 1 cup cashew (can substitute almonds or walnuts) 1 clove garlic Salt to taste Place all ingredients in food processor until the ingredients resemble very small pieces, like Parmesan cheese.
