Animal Caretakers
Introduction
The instinct to help other humans in need or to have compassion for them, exist in most humans. But, not most humans look at an animal on the side of the road or wandering around their neighborhood and think they should be helped, especially since they are different from their own. Luckily, there are some people that dedicate their time, life, and love to help injured and suffering animals in need. Just like parents try to keep their kids off the streets, an animal caretaker tries to do the same with animals.
Main Point- One/ Animal Caretakers seek to take stray animals off the street.
Last week, a stray dog was wandering around my neighborhood. It was a small fury little fella with somewhat of an under bite and matted hair. I ended up naming him Henry just because it seemed right! Henry happened to have taken a liking to me and our front porch. Henry had no intentions of leaving, so we let him sleep in the garage with a blanket. We would have kept Henry but the Vet bill would have been too high. Luckily, there were people we could call to come take Henry to the animal shelter. Those Animal rescuers/ caretakers didn’t hesitate to come, and made sure everything they did was humane. A humane thing the animal caretakers did was take Henry to a shelter.
Main Point- Two/ Animal Caretakers care for animal in Animal shelter or Hospital.
When they are in a safe place, different Vets and animal caretakers make sure the animals are comfortable and healthy. Animal caretakers do all they can to get the animal back in good health and appearance for a loving family one day. Going to several animal shelters like Paws and The Humane Society, gave me an overview of how these equal minded animal lovers handle the different cases of animal injuries and abuse they receive. You can tell they want the best for all of them. When an animal is fully medicated, it is then eligible for a new home.
