Be Nurturing

Whether by pampering your S.O. or being the “parent” in your friend group, you’ll likely take on a caregiver role this season. Use that nurturing power to benefit animals in your life by playing mentally stimulating games with your cat, creating nesting sites for the birds in your yard, or doing something else to show animals you care about their well-being. 🐱🐦❤️

Relish the Romance

Romance is in the air during Cancer season. 😉 Cancers tend to look for the real deal, so you may be craving a deep connection with someone. With the right tips, you can enjoy being in a respectful relationship and introduce your S.O. to animal rights ideas that may be new to them.

Stay Loyal

This is the season to make a commitment. Don’t worry—you don’t have to get engaged to flex your loyalty, as you can commit to an animal rights goal of your choice instead. Try handing out 50 copies of our “Guide to Going Vegan” or collecting supplies for your local animal shelter. Stay loyal to whatever goal you pick until it’s completed.

Embrace Your Emotions

POV: You just finished watching a funny show, yet you’re bawling your eyes out over the characters’ stories. 😭 It’s completely natural to feel emotional—and in Cancer season, it’s extra-likely. Thankfully, being sensitive and empathetic is central to everything animal advocates do, so embrace those qualities and let your heart guide you to make animal-friendly choices.

Take Nonconfrontational Actions

Avoiding conflict is a classic Cancer characteristic. Tbf, some conflict is unavoidable, but you don’t have to seek it out if you’re feeling shy. There are plenty of ways you can help animals without confronting anyone head-on—and signing animal rights petitions is one of the best. Confrontation: Low. Impact: High.
