Kanali’s Cause Month 2026
Carrying Kanali’s Light Forward
Kanali’s Cause began with a promise to speak out against animal cruelty and honor the lives of Kanali and her pasture mate, Catori.
Kanali’s life was tragically cut short, but her story became an important part of why Solstice Sanctuary exists today. Her name means “Sun,” and Kanali continues to be a reminder of the responsibility we have to protect animals, advocate for their welfare, and give them the care and safety they deserve.
Each October, in recognition of National Animal Safety and Protection Month, we honor that promise through Kanali’s Cause Month.
Be Part of Kanali’s Cause Month
Throughout the month, there are many ways to get involved, from events and volunteer opportunities to fundraisers that directly support the animals of Solstice Sanctuary. Together, we can honor Kanali and Catori by continuing the work their lives inspired. Check out the events schedule below.
