Book Buddies is open to children in grades 1-8 who wish to practice their reading skills by reading out loud to cats in the shelter. Cats provide a non-judgmental and enthusiastic audience as they are soothed by the rhythmic sound of the children reading stories they bring from home.
Readers are welcome to read to the cats kennel side on our adoption floor after completing an application in our Better Impact system and watching a 5-minute orientation video. Reading will happen in scheduled shifts Monday through Friday between 2:30 and 4:00.
