It's Animal Rights Awareness Week, which occurs the third week of June every year (June 19 to 25 this year), and this week raises awareness about animal welfare and how to best protect and respect animals. 🦥 Topics for this week include: animal cruelty, puppy mills, animal testing, and more. 🐇 The week was first established and observed in 1991 by the In Defense of Animals organization. Each year, it is observed to raise public awareness about global animal rights issues and speak up for animals that humans have exploited for millennia. 🦢 With my picture book, “Tamara Turtle’s Life So Far”, I aim to teach children about the plight of both pet and wild, invasive and native turtles and their rights. And partial proceeds go to Little RES Q Reptile Rescue to help them help turtles, too. 🐢 In my picture book, “Chloe the Unfeathered Parrot”, I tell children the story of Chloe to teach them about parrot rights and rescues. And partial proceeds go to The Parrot Sanctuary, also featured in the book. 🦜 What would you like to do this week to raise awareness about animal rights?

You can help by sharing adoptable animals, assisting rescues and shelters, and urging your friends, family, and followers to get involved. I’ll be sharing adoptable pets on the Kuri K9 Massage Facebook and Instagram accounts periodically throughout the month. Let’s all get posting to find some worthy adoptable animals their forever homes! And not only that, it’s also National Adopt a Cat Month in June! Since June is considered kitten season, a lot of cats end up homeless when their owners are unable to find them a home. Seeing this influx of kittens in shelters is why many campaigns for cat adoption started in June. AND it’s National Foster a Pet--dedicated to pet fostering across the country in order to share information and to raise awareness about the benefits of fostering animals. So many reasons to Petwork this June!
