My nephew and niece are still a bit young (ages 4 years and 22 months) for the major plans I have in store for them. (Heh-heh, I will create animal lovers! Or at the very least animal-respecters, because I guess not everyone is born with the pet-loving gene.) The humane society here has a summer day-camp for kids seven years and older for a few weeks in the summer. I've already talked with my sister (years ago, actually) about paying to send them when they are old enough, yet young enough that they won't resent it because they'd rather attend sports-camps or something. At the camp they get to learn about how to care for cats and dogs and get to play with them, etc.



For now I just let them watch me taking care of my mom's cats and dogs and I talk to my nephew about how animals have feelings too and how they need us to take care of them. He came and saw the vet clinic while I still worked there and was interested in the animal-doctor things.
