Catharsis
Too Far Gone
Kyle took his time biking to the shelter, taking only the long roads and pedaling slowly to ensure he would get there only after several minutes to an hour. He was always late, and did it just to spite Nichole and Remus. Much to his dismay, he had mistakenly went a little faster than usual and now, he could see the shelter coming into view. When he got to the shelter he slammed his bike into the side of the building and walked in. Nichole had told him the previous day that they would have new workers and volunteers, but this was a lot. He groaned and sat down in a small chair in the reception room and waited for Nichole or Remus to finish up so they could tell him his assignment for the day. Kyle didn't actually work with any animals. In fact, he didn't even know how many animals were in the shelter currently. He was usually outside doing construction or repairs for the shelter. He had built the dog fences and the horse corral. As of right now, Nichole made him do store runs and put in orders. So he usually stayed busy.
Nichole led the small group behind her into the dog room. Each side of the room was lined with large cages made to be put outside, and each contained a maximum of three dogs. She began to walk down the center between the cages and spoke, "This is the doggy room. As you can see we have pretty big cages, but we only keep two dogs in each at a time to prevent them from feeling discomfort, which could lead to the dogs getting into a fight. Now, most of our dogs in this shelter are spayed and neutered as soon as they come in in less they have a collar or chip. Despite this, we keep males and females separated. When we are unable to have an animal fixed for whatever reason, we send that specific animal to one of the fosters we have lined up until we can take care of that. Now, i'm sure by now you've noticed that each cage has two name tags on it, those names are the animal's names that are within the cage. When you take the dogs out, please PLEASE remember to put them in the right cage. Some of these dogs don't get along very well and we don't want any fights. You'll pick up on their names soon enough, but if you can't remember it's not a problem. Just ask me, remus, or one of the coworkers." she paused and walked back to the entrance. "Any questions before I go?"
