Reading with cats

What could be cuter than kids and kitties? Not much that I can think of! Inspired by a program in Pennsylvania, the Seattle Humane Society has launched Kitty Literature. Children ages 5-10 can stop by the shelter on Eastgate Way in Bellevue on Mondays-Wednesdays from 3-6pm and read to cats. One of our kindergartners is an inaugural member!

Reading to cats is great for the kids - who could be a more patient, non-critical audience? And it's great for the cats too, since they get a little extra human companionship - and, who knows? Maybe some will find a new home as well... Check out their Facebook post too!
