I, personally, love cats and dogs, seeing street dogs and cats always melt my heart and I make sure to go up to them and try to pet them, sometimes, even feed them. The issue i am focusing on is caring for street animals, specifically dogs and cats. There are about 1 lakh street dogs in the city I live in, many street dogs don’t get food to eat and starve for most of their lives, so I took up the initiative to feed them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I want to feed street dogs and cats as a part of the service. but I will continue to feed these cats and dogs for as long as I can (no time duration). The ones I am choosing to feed are the street dogs and cats that wander around the part of the city I live in, near my house. I fed them biscuits, milk, milk mixed with rice, or milk mixed with roti, depending on what was available with me. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Getting close to these animals, took me some effort as they were scared at first and would not be willing to come near me, but gradually, after trying for a few days, I was able to win their trust and get them to let me pet them, and even feed them from my own hands. I am very grateful for this experience because I feel happy when I know that I am able to help these animals even a little. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I focused on LO3 (Demonstrate how to initiate and plan a CAS experience<\/strong>) firstly, I had to buy biscuits and milk from a convenient store near my house, and for cats i specifically bought cat food and I was not sure what I could feed cats, and I prepared the rice and roti from my home itself. Then I had to ask around to watchmans in my area where i could find street dogs and street cats. Then I went out to that area near my home where I knew I could find street dogs and I get them the food I prepared. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I also focused on LO4 (Show commitment to and perseverance in CAS experiences<\/strong>) I was committed towards this CAS experience due to my personal interest, My love for dogs and cats, I did not only feed them but I also played with them, as in I was petting their heads and bodies which they seemed to love a lot! I at least spent 10 mins with each dog or cat I came across. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I also focused on LO7 (Recognise and consider the ethics of choices and actions<\/strong>) there are around 1 lakh stray dogs in Surat alone, and the increase of this number is rapid. Most stray dogs and cats die of starvation. I realized that I could be of help to these helpless animals and at least feed them food, which is ethically the right thing to do, I am very emphatic towards these animals. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The learner profile I showcased here was caring as I gave them food and a bit of love (by petting them) and hoped to make their days and lives better so at least they sleep one less night hungry. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
