The Care & Appreciation of Animals!; Monday, Third Period [07/17].

"Good morning, everyone!" Sidon greeted everyone as they gathered together in Furnado yet again for another fun and exciting day of learning about animals! "I hope you've all had a wonderful weekend, and I hope you're ready to explore further into the wild world of magificient creatures that we have here at the shelter, because today, we're going to be talking about cats!"

An animal that seemed to be, unless you knew anything about the general nature of cats, suspiciously absent at the moment.

"That's right!" Sidon pumped his fist. "Cats! Of which we do have many of here at the shelter, but all of whom appear to be making themselves a bit scarce at the moment, but no worries! We shall get to that, but first, let us learn what we can about the domestic cat and things to keep in mind if you're planning on taking one home!"

Which, of course, launched Sidon into his very enthusiastic breakdown about what made cats so special, from their habits to their diet, to their quirks and fun facts about them, to the variety of ways to play with and entertain cats, which should hopefully come into play here shortly, as well as possible reasons why a cat might not be a good choice for you.

"I was hoping," Sidon did sigh a little as he shook his head and looked around, "that, much like with the puppies from last week, the cats would be eager and excited to participate, but it seems as though they've all slinked off to various parts of the shelter, but that, in and of itself, might be helpful! Cats do love a bit of hide and seek, and so let us indulge them by seeking them out! It will be a good opportunity, too, to see the breadth of personality that you see in cats, and help you try and determine which ones truly do wish to be left alone and which might be feeling a little more playful and friendly, but want you to sort of work for it first! So let's everyone go forth and find some cats and see who we can find!"

"My friend Erin's grandda has adopted a wee feral cat who is an absolute murderer," Clare confided.

"He had to put on a wee bell after a pet rabbit disappeared under very mysterious circumstances," Clare said, nodding.

Libby was rewarded almost immediately when she reasoned that the Littles were always coaxed by treats. She barely even picked up a bag of cat treats to give it an enticing shake before she had a small swarm of cats emerging from seemingly no where and clustering around her ankles with big bright eyes and persistent meows.

"Well, goodness," she said. "I think maybe dome some of you might like some snacks, huh?"
