Good for you, Alyssa! It sounds great. I know you will have a good time, and you be able to make the shelter experience a little less stressful for some of the animals.

That sounds like a lot of fun! You will have a great time.

I can't wait to see pictures of the puppies!

I have some pics for you guys =) This is my first time at the shelter in a LONG time. I haven't been there since I was around 6-7. So anyway, we went for our Cat Socialization training. The shelter is in complete chaos because they are working on a $5 million renovation right now and it's almost done. Everyone is cramped in the 5 rooms they have, it's really not a good enviorment for the animals but they do try their best. It's fairly clean, if someone pees on the floor it's cleaned up ASAP. It's just stressful because the cats can hear the dogs barking, and they are not taken out to often, so they have a system where they have a clipboard and it says who hasn't gotten much attention this week. You're supposed to mark it when you give one attention and give the ones who had no attention some. There was a 9 year old cat named Mrs. kitty. She was such a pretty girl and very sweet and she hadn't gotten any loving so I of course took her out. What a purr machine LOL!

So anyway onto the pics-


Sleepy cutie..

DeeDee and Daniel. They were SO CUTE!! They are around 10 weeks old.

Atticus

Not the nicest kitty, but she was so pretty!

Fred and Angelica. They are so sweet!!

Last but not least..Mrs. Kitty my fav.



Sorry the pics are so weird looking. Anyway, I love it! I can't wait to walk the dogs, I can't do that until I go to the dog walking meeting which will be soon. The renovation is going to make EVERYONE much happier!! The cats will hardly be caged, they will have indoor/outdoor access. The dogs will have large airy kennels, and a nice field to play in, and the birds/rabbits/and gerbils WON'T have to be on top of the cats cages. I got scratched by a cat named Else, but it wasn't something I'd report, because they are all in such a stressful enviorment and I don't blame them for being so nervous. I love them all, but I really liked Mrs.Kitty =)
