Reading

Last Saturday, Emma and her friends organized a Pet Care Day at the community centre. They learned how to look after different animals. A veterinarian showed them how to check a dog's teeth and ears. The children practised brushing a cat and learned that cats need fresh water every day. They also discovered that rabbits like to eat vegetables and hay. In the afternoon, everyone helped clean the animal cages and played games with the pets. Emma's favourite part was teaching a shy puppy to play fetch. All the children felt very happy because they could help the animals. Next month, they want to organize another Pet Care Day.
