not_a_haintIt might still be cold, and the snow might be a challenge (though still pretty), but the animals at the shelter still needed caring for.
He might not be afraid of dogs anymore but he found that he was still more of a cat person. Maybe it was the accoustics, but the cat room was so much quieter. Though the dogs seemed happier to see him.
When everything was cleaned and everyone was fed and watered, Caleb checked on one particular feline resident. There was a very frightened kitten he had decided to try to befriend. Last time it had spat, and hissed, and slapped at his hand (thank goodness he'd taken the precaution of wearing a thick glove). He'd kept his distance, just putting a bit of food nearer to it.
Today it didn't seem outwardly any friendlier but it didn't bat at him immediately when he reached in to change the bedding. He got some treats and once again placed them near the poor kid.
"I know darlin'." he said. "I'm sorry. But I promise, you're safe."
The shelter is open.
