The Care & Appreciation of Animals!; Monday, Third Period [07/03].
Hopefully, the students in the class would be gathering at the animals shelter, as instructed, and the animal shelter was clearly ready for them! And so was Sidon, waiting with a big grin and an eager excitement as they all gathered to get ready for the lesson to begin.
And, of course, the introductions!
"Hello! And welcome," he boomed, throwing open his arms and puffing out his chested excitedly, "to the Care and Appreciation of Animals! I am your faithful instructor, Sidon!" Here, he swept one of his fists in front of him in an enthusiastic pump, flashing them a grin that caught perfectly in the light, and he held it for a brief second before continuing. "The Zora Prince! And also the manager of this fine shelter! I have worked here ever since I myself was a student at the high school, many years ago, and many more in my timeline, but those are details that do not quite matter in this instance. What does matter is that Furnado Animal Shelter has been home to a wide variety of different animals and creatures that call this island home, and it is here that they will find love, attention, and the care they deserve, and where one might come in to find love, attention, and the care they deserve from them, as well!
"Before we really get into it, however," Sidon continued, "we must keep in mind that our furry, feathered, and scaled friends are all their own individuals, as well as living beings, and so extra care and precaution must be taken as we learn about them and ourselves through them! Absolutely no mishandling of the animals will be tolerated, nor will any straying from the instructions as given when dealing with particular kinds of animals. We are going to go over some very important safety tips before we get started, as well as some other things to keep in mind going forward.
"And, once we're finished with that, I will be giving you all ten minutes to familiarize yourself not only with the shelter, but with the animals as well. I'd like you to use this time to find an animal that you feel you may already have a special connection with: a new fast friend, or one of your favorite kinds of animals, or an animal you feel represents you! Depending on the animal, the vet here," he gestured with the utmost respect and admiration to the shelter's tireless and dedicated doctor, "will help you with handling them, or we will just leave them be and describe your animal when you get back, and we will take some time getting to know you through your new friends: let us know who you are, why you're excited to be learning about the Care and Appreciation of Animals, and why you picked this particular animal to befriend today! In the following weeks, we will be focusing on very specific animals or very specific types of care, but, for today, let's just get to know each other and the animals a little better as a whole, as well as how to keep everyone involved safe and comfortable!"
And, of course, the introductions!

"Hi, I'm Kurt" he said with a wave. "I picked this little guy because he really represents me- we both have a lot of energy and we both have cool ways of getting from one place to another. And I also kinda turned into a sugar glider myself once so... I kinda have a soft spot for them!"

Having never had any animal transformations himself, remarkably, he didn't know for certain, but it didn't take a great leap of faith, really.
