I ended up going with JAVOedge's tweed cover. Thanks all for the replies.

We should keep this thread alive somewhat though so if someone else is looking for vegan-friendly covers we can have a host of options posted up here. I just wish we could change the headline to something like "vegan ebook covers" to be more generalized.

JAVOedge, by the way, offers covers for most ereaders (as well as iPods and the like).

And as far as the OT posts go - Wow, I was not trying to start an argument. I was just looking for some suggestions for cruelty-free cases. I still fail to see how I worded the title wrong but I guess it's all about interpretation, isn't it?

All I'll say as far as the OT arguments go is this: no matter the case all animal-based food, clothing, Kindle cases, etc. involve cruelty. There are no well-enforced laws concerning humane tactics of slaughter. I am loathe to post it because it's horrible but this video perfectly illustrates the conditions in most slaughterhouses.

And, by the way, the amount of fruits and vegetables in a grocery store doesn't matter. Man (even vegans) cannot survive on vegetables and fruit alone. You still have read labels as far as everything goes. There are milk-derivatives and/or egg in nearly everything these days. It's not easy to stick to your guns most of the time. Add to that the fact that I have two children and you have an entirely new headache.

I'm not bitching, mind you, I just feel like since I started this I needed to weigh in. Now get back on-topic dammit!
