Fresh off the release of her debut album, Visitor, singer Sienna Spiro is giving rescue animals their moment in the spotlight in a new PETA U.K. campaign alongside rescue dog, Tim, urging everyone to always adopt animals from shelters and never buy them from breeders or online retailers. In an accompanying video, several adoptable dogs and cats steal the show while Spiro takes time to remind everyone that “[animals] are for life, and you have to commit to them.”

“Animals have always been very, very important to me … my dogs have always been my best friends,” Spiro shares in a video shot at The Mayhew, an animal shelter in Northwest London. “One thing I hope people take away from this is definitely to adopt and not shop … and maybe not just go for a kitten or a puppy. Maybe go for one that’s had an amazing history.”

As PETA points out, shelters in the U.K., U.S., and elsewhere are bursting at the seams – and every time a breeder sells a puppy, a dog waiting in an animal shelter or struggling to survive on the streets loses their chance at finding a loving home. Spiro says, “There’s thousands and thousands of amazing animals that really need homes.”

Spiro joins a long list of celebrities —including Tove Lo, Gavin Rossdale, Yung Gravy, John 5, Cristin Milioti, and Kathy Griffin—who have teamed up with PETA UK and its international entities to promote adoption.

PETA—whose motto reads, in part, that “animals are not ours to abuse in any way”— points out that Every Animal Is Someone and offers free Empathy Kits for people who need a lesson in kindness. For more information, please visit PETA.org or follow PETA on X, Facebook, or Instagram.
