When it comes to all things animal-friendly, as they say, “There’s an app for that.” PETA’s new “Be Nice to Bunnies” iPhone app featuring sexy Stephanie Pratt is the essential guide for cruelty-free shoppers. And there are oodles of other apps out there to help us with everything from finding a tasty vegan meal on the road to picking the perfect dog park. So after downloading Pratt’s buntastic app, check out PETA’s favorite animal-friendly apps for the iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad. Happy apping!
