Reflection One

During this project, I have learned many new materials I need to show evidence on animal abandonment. This is truly a massive problem we have in our community.  I have read a vast number of cases that have occurred in our county and surrounding areas. In all of these cases, it shows that the lack of knowledge and financial issues are the main causes. At this time, I have a large amount of facts to prove my point. If people are educated in the proper animal care, then this problem will see a drastic decline. In today’s society people are doing anything and everything to get rid of an animal. They are figuring sneakier ways to abandon them. In one case I read a woman dropped 6 cats in a box at the door of an animal shelter after hours.

            At this time, I plan on volunteering at Grand Stand Human Society. At this time I have contacted many organizations to set up an available time that is convenient for the organization. I have yet to hear back from any, but to plan on contacting so more organizations to set up times and dates. I will be participating in a variety of activities while I am there. I am not sure what at this time but as soon as I arrive there I will do everything I am asked to do.  

Since the time I have started this project, I have been getting more involved with animals and helping to take care of them. I am taking the actions I need to take to be a responsible community member. I am helping out community members who have a hard taking care of their animals. I honestly feel I need to take ore actions to get in these organizations and start my work and begin to educate people on why this is such a huge issue, and what can be done to decrease this.
