My 12 Days of Christmas-Day 6

I am a little out of order, but here we go. The other day prior to my researching galleries, I volunteered at the cat shelter again. I made a special assignment for myself for the day. I worked very hard on helping one terrified kitten learn to trust people. He is terrified, huddled in the corner any time he sees a person. I endured a few scratches, but it was well worth the effort. I grabbed up his steel grey social butterfly of a brother and simply held them both until the he wasn't so scared. It seems so simple until you try it. I think regaining trust is maybe one of the harder things to try to teach. He and I are better for it. He seemed to even have enjoyed it briefly. Well, ever so briefly. I will continue with him so that he has a chance at adoption.

This act of kindness is dedicated to all of the people who adopted the cats that I saved in Hawaii, especially Ms Andrade
