Volunteering
For my community service project I volunteered at the Humane Society of Washington County with the cats and dogs. I did my community service there because I love animals especially cats, they are super cute. When I first started out I had to go through a class then I to be interviewed by someone who worked there. I wanted to start out working with the cats because I am more comfortable with cats then I am with dogs. My mom had to volunteer there too because I was under the age of 16. Some of the things I got to do with the cats was I got to hold them, play with them, and clean out their cages. I got to see a lot of very tiny kittens, they were really cute! There were some kittens and cats that I got attached to and wanted to take home, but my mom would not let me, sadly. I did that for most of the time, then after a while I decided to walk dogs, but before I did I had to take a dog walking class and practice by walking a dog. I was able to walk some puppies. My favorite dog that I walked was a golden retriever puppy named Abby, she was absolutley adorable. Golden Retrievers are my favorite type of dog. I feel bad for the dogs that are in there, but some of them do act really mean the way that they bark. I feel bad for the cats to of course. Now since I am not volunteering there I like to go there every couple weeks and visit to what kind of cats and dogs they have. If you get the chance you should adopt a pet there at the humane society.
