Week: 16| Acts of Animal Kindness in Your Daily Life| by @anthony002

Hello friends home and abroad warm regards to everyone, I'm @anthony002 from Nigeria I'm a nature and animal lover, and it's a pleasure to have you on my post, I'm delighted to engage in this week's amazing Contest titled: "Acts of Animal Kindness in Your Daily Life" organized by ma'am @uzma4882, which I am going to share with you all an amazing photographs also by doing well as giving my insights on this dynamic. Let's dive in!

Before I proceed, I would like to thank @uzma4882, especially for organizing this amazing contest and the community. Is an honor to be part of the participants.

Just as the contest topic said, I'm going to share my daily routine of showing kindness(Caring) to my dad's animals (Goats) precisely.

"Acts of Animal kindness in my daily life"

Every morning after I wake I usually go to the animal shelter and say "Hi" lol, I will carry them out after the other to the grass field and tie them there so they can feed on the greener and healthier grasses after that I go back to their shelter and sweep out the goat's manure and put the manure in a bucket later it would be used for my aunty garden, see how we are being productive right.

Anyways, after I'm done cleaning the animal shelter, I then go out to cut "Gmelina leaves" that I would feed the goats with; Gmelina arborea is considered a valuable fodder tree for goats and other livestock in many parts of the world.

After the stress, I cut the leaves and bring them home I will wait until it's afternoon then I will go to the grass field untie all the goat carry them home tie them up somewhere around the environment, the reason I moved them out of the grass field is because of Sun, the high temperature make them dehydrated and uncomfortable, so they won't be able to feed very well, they would just be under the sun screaming.

What I do after I move the goats out of the sun and tie their goats in the cool environment, immediately fill up a big bowl with fresh water and mix it up with a little salt to make it tasty for the animals which can enable them to drink more water (Alot), goats likes the taste of salt very well, is not asif goats don't drink water without salt no, but goats will not drink much same as they will drink the one with salt, I have to take care of goats for long now, I bet you can put it to test.

After giving the goats water, I will then serve the goats the gmelina leaves, one of their favorites fr, so,, after all, I would let them be they till evening by 6pm I will then serve the remaining gmelina leaves in their shelter and untie them and take them in, close the locker and that's work done for that day.

Not so easily as explained here, I have faced many challenges and obstacles, in one way or another trying to care for my four-footed fried, being afraid of snakes and others, and still being courageous to enter the bush and cut food for the animals, having acrophobia and still try my best to climb trees to cut gmelina leaves for the goats, but the joy of connection and bonding with the goats, highlighting the emotional rewards of showing kindness and compassion. Every day of my life caring for animals, made me develop new skills, build confidence, and also cope with challenges. The lessons learned from caring for the goats are empathy, responsibility, and patience. I hope this article has the potential to inspire and uplift my readers! ❤️
