Free Movie Screening March 5th!
Attention Atlanta folks! Cosmo's is putting together a screening of the movie Fowl Play on Friday, March 5th at Wonderroot.
Fowl Play is a documentary from Mercy For Animals that takes viewers on an unforgettable journey behind the closed doors of some of the country's largest egg production facilities and graphically illustrates the heartbreaking plight of laying hens condemned to lives crowded inside file-drawer sized cages.
Through touching interviews with animal rescuers, undercover investigators, veterinarians, and animal behaviorists, we hear powerful stories motivated by kindness and courage from the dedicated individuals who are fighting to save the modern day hen- perhaps the most abused and exploited animal on earth.
Connecting the dots between consumer demand for meat, dairy and eggs and the perpetuation of animal abuse, Fowl Play leaves viewers with a groundbreaking message of personal responsibility and the potential each of us holds to change the world- one meal at a time.
Please join us for a special screening of this heartfelt, sad, yet inspiring documentary! Vegan refreshments will be provided by Cosmo's and by Dough Bakery. Here is the address and some directions to the Wonderroot facility:
982 Memorial Drive, Atlanta, GA 30316
Merge onto I-20 East from the 75/85 Connector.
Take exit 59B towards Memorial Drive/Glenwood Ave.

Metro Atlanta- Can You Help Save a Local Dog?
Hi Atlanta folks! Pamela, one of our very kind and compassionate customers, needs help to save a sweet boy dog that is scheduled to be put to death tomorrow at Floyd County Animal Services. One of the volunteers at the shelter said that she would put a "hold" on him if Pamela could get there to pick him up by this weekend. Pamela lives in the city and does not have a vehicle, so she has been trying to work out some transportation to get this pup relocated to a closer shelter for pickup and adoption.
From Pamela:
What I need is either a ride to Rome, OR a rescue that can pull him for me, and then I would get him from the rescue. I know it's a stretch but I am running out of options. I hate to see a perfectly healthy adoptable animal be killed, or any animal for that matter. I know it happens all the time but if I can help one, then that's something.
Is there anyone available for transportation to help Pamela save this animal from his death sentence this week? If so, please contact her directly via email: ashley_cat@yahoo.com
or telephone: 585-643-5481
