A volunteer experience at an animal hospital
Last week, I volunteered at a local animal hospital. When I arrived, I found many homeless cats and dogs there. Some animals were 1 and could hardly walk.
A vet told me they were very busy because they had 2 50% more animals than usual. My first job was to feed the animals and clean their cages. At first, I felt tired. But when a little dog rubbed its head against my hand 3 after I fed it, I felt warmth in my heart.
There was also a "Read to Animals" activity. I read simple stories to the animals every afternoon. The vet said this could help them feel 4 and get ready for their new homes. One day, a scared cat hid in the corner and refused to eat. I sat down quietly and read to it softly. After a while, it slowly came out and ate the food I put there. At that moment I realised how 5 small acts of kindness could be.
On my last day there, the vet gave me a certificate of thanks. He said I helped the animals feel more 6 around people. I stayed there for five days. It was a(n) 7 experience that taught me a lot. I learned that caring for weak creatures was also a way of helping others.
Now, I often 8 my friends to join in volunteer activities with me. Helping animals makes me feel happy and meaningful. I believe that if everyone 9 a little kindness, the world will become a better place. As the saying goes, "No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever 10."
