This challenge is all about developing confidence, relationships/ people skills, preparation/ planning, persistence and Independence. As well as developing our technical considerations for our camera: shutter speed, aperture, lighting, flash and focus.
So below are photos from my task, this shows how I interpreted what place I was given.
The place I was given was a the RSPCA: the cattery. :)
When completing part of this challenge it helped me develop my people skills when interacting and talking with the person or people at your specific place, as well as general confidence, and Independence. I was there long enough to be asked if I would like to see the laundry/ and shower room. With persistence this was possible. Luckily the lady of which was supervising me was very nice and chatty.
While I was there I was trying to develop my people skills and relationships while there as I found out a lot of information while there:
- Any animals that are brought in will be immediately scanned for a ownership chip, if unchipped they will eventually be chipped prior adoption. Meanwhile they will be flied and vaccinated and if necessary neutered prior to re-homing. Some animals that may have been ill-treated or may have been stray for a long while may need greater veterinary attention. it is always the RSPCA to rescue and re home animals, but sometimes this isn't always possible.
- The cages get cleaned after cats removed
- They are handled, stroked, cuddled many times everyday
- They sometimes rename cat
- They complete a was every 45 minutes from all the bedding etc
Below are the photos i took:
As well as visiting the RSPCA I also went to a home run cattery which looks after cats for families when they are away on holiday etc. So here are photos of Bournemouth Boarding Cattery: this place was a lot different from the RSPCA but cared and catered for the cats just the same.
