A few weeks ago, I volunteered for two days, with my friends, Carol, Maria and Colleen at a locally sponsored Rabies Clinic. A veterinarian was giving affordably priced rabies shots for cats and dogs.

All I knew was that we were going to be filling out paperwork, name, address, pet name, age, sex, neutered? Sounded easy enough.....

When we arrived at the firehouse at the scheduled time, the pets and owners were already lined up and down the street!

We quickly ran to our stations and after a very brief orientation, began furiously filling out forms and handing out rabies tags. After which the line would form again inside for the actual shot to be given. OK, I admit it doesn't sound hard but when one person would come up with several pets at once, it seemed chaos could erupt at any second.

It was hard to keep focused on the task at hand when the pets and the kids were so darn cute!
