Mango Minster – Adventure Animals Entry

Guess what? For the first time EVER, I’m entering myself in Mango Minster! I’m so excited!

I thought long and hard which category I should enter. It was a very much tough decision cuz, well, I AM super cute and I do a LOT of work around the house for my mom and dad. Of course, Bad Sport was out for Most Obvious reasons. But in the end, I decided to enter the Adventure Animals category.

Now, for the first coupla years of my life, I never thought much abouts having adventures. That’s cuz I spent all my time living outside in somebody’s backyard. I didn’t even IMAGINE that there might be a world outside of that yard. 

But all that changed when I got rescued and then my mom and dad adopted me. That’s when I found out just how adventurous I really am.

When I first got adopted, just living inside a house was an adventure. There were all sorts of strange and skeery things that I didn’t understand. I couldn’t walk on the slippery wooden floors or go up and down stairs, and the first time I saw the Sea Link Fahn bird, I fell to my tummy and my teethies starting chattering cuz I thought it was gonna swoop down and carry me off!

But little by little, I got more brave and adventuresome and now…

When I first got adopted, I had never been to school and didn’t know cool stuff like “sit” or “down” or “stay” or “high five.” So when mom said she was enrolling us in our first class, I was pretty nervous. She said, “Oh, c’mon, Mayzie. It’ll be a fun adventure!” And you know what? She was right! And it made me lots more confident. I’ve finished up FIVE classes now and I can’t wait to do more!

When I first got adopted, I just wanted to hide away in the safety of my house. I didn’t like staying in strange places like hotels or going to other people’s houses but now, going to those places is a Most Exciting adventure!

And when I first got adopted, I didn’t even like to go for walkies on our street cuz the big wide world was so skeery and unpredictable-like. But now…

Oh, I know these things might not seem as exciting or adventuresome as bungee jumping or sky diving or drag racing. And there’s lots of things that I’m still afraid of. But when I was first adopted, if something skeery came along, I would just go to my condo and hide. Now when I’m skeered, I take a deep breath, gather up all my courage, walk over and bop it with my nose! And you know what? After I do that, I usually find out it’s not so skeery after all.

And I think that makes me
