In the ad, Jackson, 22, appears as an angel holding her rescued cat Alfie next to the words "Be an Angel for Animals: Adopt. Don't Buy!"
The ad was shot by ace photographer Nikki Lyons.
"Every time someone buys a cat or a dog from a breeder or a pet shop, a cat on the streets or in an animal shelter loses his or her chance at finding a good home", Jackson said.
Jackson found Alfie when he was just 6-week-old, abandoned on the side of a busy road in a box with four other kittens. Three of them didn't survive, and Jackson and her sister adopted the other two, Alfie and Frankie.
Jackson has been a long-time animal rights supporter and often speaks out on social-networking forums about issues such as animal adoptions and rescues and cruel horse-drawn carriages.
