Number one is Chief Cat Cuddler (CCC). As the CCC, the toddler ensures that each cat receives the requisite cuddles. Cats that don’t get enough cuddles might shirk their responsibilities as Rodent Control Specialists (RCS). Therefore, if she shirks her duties, it can have catastrophic results.

The second chore is Bottle Baby Patrol (BBP). This is integral to ensuring that the sheep herd stays healthy and strong. Some babies require extra attention to ensure the replenishment of the herd. The next task ties into herd maintenance. As the Herd Heath Inspector (HHI), the toddler must sit in her inspection chair and swing for a specified period. This allows her to monitor herd health and safety.

As the Manager of Animal Noises (MAN), the one-year-old must ensure each animal knows what sound they should be making. Her duties include moo-ing at cows, baa-ing at sheep, meow-ing at cats, and guaranteeing the donkey remembers his hee haw. They’re forgetful, so this is an essential part of her chores.

The final chore is Cat Food Distributor (CFD). With only one feeding station in the barn, the toddler delivers small handfuls of kibble to various locations around the barn, distributing the food for easier consumption.
