In honor of “Be An Angel” Day<\/strong>, an international, nondenominational celebration of acts of kindness, we thought we’d share some of our favorite ads starring celebrity angels for animals\u2014including Kimora Lee Simmons<\/a>, Audrina Patridge, and David Boreanaz\u2014who have earned their wings by spreading heavenly messages about protecting dogs, cats, and other animals.<\/p>\n

Wearing nothing but a beautiful pair of angel wings and holding her dog, Zoe, supermodel and fashion designer Kimora Lee Simmons urges people to “be an angel for dogs” in a gorgeous new ad campaign for PETA.<\/p>\n

Kimora wanted to do the ad to show off her naked desire to get people to make dogs a part of their families\u2014not leave them tied up outside or cooped up alone at home all day.<\/p>\n

“You cannot just chain up an animal. The chains are heavy, it’s cruel,” she says. “Dogs need to run and play,” she adds.<\/strong> That’s why Kimora has teamed up with PETA urging dog guardians to “play with them, take them for long walks, don’t ever chain or cage them.<\/p>\n

The wings Kimora wears were designed by renowned costumemaker Martin Izquierdo, the genius behind Victoria’s Secret’s iconic angel wings<\/strong>, who adapted his design and created Kimora’s wings out of 100 percent cruelty-free synthetic materials.<\/p>\n

In an exclusive interview with PETA, Kimora urges people to do whatever they can to help neglected, backyard dogs.<\/strong> “Everybody should do the best they can,” she says, “because a lot of little bests-you-can add up to a lot of saved animals.”<\/p>\n

Kimora has certainly earned her wings\u2014she has donated $20,000 to PETA’s “Angel for Animals” project<\/strong>, which provides sturdy, custom-made doghouses for needy dogs. These dogs often have little more\u2014and sometimes even less\u2014than an overturned barrel or a piece of plywood resting against a fence for shelter.<\/p>\n

To be an angel for animals today, consider giving bedding and treats to a lonely chained dog<\/a>, playing with cats at an animal shelter<\/a>, driving a needy animal to a spay\/neuter<\/a> appointment, or just giving your best friends some extra TLC.<\/p>\n
