Everyone knows my kids love animals. Anytime we go to PetSmart just to buy crickets for one of our reptiles we end up in the store for an hour petting all the dogs we see. But only animals in aquariums are allowed in the Minney household and that is why we volunteer weekly at the Livingston County Humane Society.
Each of the kids have a cat that they play with everyweek. We go every Tuesday and play with the cats and perform other duties that may be needed that day like folding laundry, cleaning cages, etc.
Grant's buddy is Bugaboo. Bugaboo is a black long-haired cat with a great personality. He has been at the shelter almost two years and we are hoping he will find a good home soon.
Abi has
a pal named Neo. Neo is a short haired cat who has been at the shelter several months. Neo is still a young cat and is very playful. Of course, Abi really loves the dogs and right now a St. Bernard named Sasha has her heart. Maybe Mom's too! Sasha is a sweet heart and there is no doubt if we lived on lots of land Sasha would come home with the Minneys!!
Paige will be back volunteering as soon as school is out but she is no stranger to animals!! Last week we attended a sheep shearing demonstration at Maybury Farm in Northville, MI. She went right to the horses!!
Paige also made friends with this little goat. (It is right in front of her hand.)
You just never know what kind of a furry (or scaly) friend my kids will make next!
