Cat Tales: Practice Reading Skills with Shelter Cats

Reading aloud is an essential skill for young children to develop, as it helps expand their vocabulary and improve reading comprehension. However, learning to read can be intimidating for some children. Cat Tales is an event where children can practice their reading skills in a safe and comforting environment with shelter cats.
Children can register for a time slot to read to a group of friendly shelter cats. These cats, who are waiting to find their forever homes, will provide a calming presence for children as they read aloud. The soothing purrs and gentle nuzzles from the cats can help ease any reading anxieties and build confidence in young readers.
Cat Tales is not only a fun and unique way for children to practice their reading skills, but it also benefits the shelter cats. By spending time with the cats, children are helping to socialize them and make them more adoptable. Registration opens the morning of the event.
