ctor Torrey DeVitto stars in a new PETA campaign urging everyone to leave goats in peace and leave cashmere where it belongs—on its original owners. The Chicago Med star, who just welcomed her daughter and was pregnant at the time of her shoot, says, “One of the most important things that I want to pass down to my child is compassion and kindness. I want her to grow up around animals and have that respect for them, and just be mindful of what she chooses to eat and wear.”

As a rescue guardian to two goats, Pip and Squeak, on her Michigan farm, DeVitto reveals goats suffer when their hair is torn out to make sweaters and scarves and encourages fans to opt for cruelty-free options instead: “If you’re looking for something new right now, look for the vegan alternative. It’s so easy.”

Mother goats form strong bonds with their young, and both mother and baby recognize each other’s distinct calls—or “bleats”—shortly after birth. PETA Asia investigations into cashmere operations in China and Mongolia—where nearly all of the world’s cashmere is produced—revealed terrified goats screaming in pain as workers pin them down, twist their legs, and tear out their hair with sharp, rake-like metal combs, tearing off pieces of their skin and leaving some with bleeding wounds. Goats deemed no longer profitable are sent to the slaughterhouse, where workers drag them onto the kill floor, bash them over the head with hammers, and slit their throats.

PETA offers a shopping guide to vegan knitwear that can help everyone cozy up this holiday season and beyond with luxurious, animal-friendly fabrics.
