Volunteer Pet Readers

In the little time Greta has, she and Fieldin decided they wanted to become shelter pet readers. They went through an orientation and learned how to log their volunteer time and all the rules. So now they can officially read to the shelter pets at one of our local shelters. They are allowed to read to certain dogs, kittens, cats, bunnies etc. It is so good for the animals and the kids LOVE it. 
 Lil" man gets SOO excited about this but the problem is he wants to bring all the cats home. Here he is reading to a sweet cat...

Both kids reading to kittens, they are so small and cute! They put the kittens to sleep. 
I like this because I have to be with the kids at all times and I get to play with all these adorable animals as well. it is nice to see how many get adopted in even the short time we are there. For the animals that don't like to be moved into reading rooms, the kids can sit by their cages and read and talk to them. It is very heartwarming to see.
