Who should be the one to feed the animals at the animal rescue?

If we were kids and we found out that we could have our birthday party at an animal rescue, we would absolutely jump on that opportunity. How fun it must be to celebrate your birthday with not only your parents and your friends, but with lots of horses, llamas, cows, and goats. Even as kids, we would have known how awesome that could be.

As for the parents, there must be a lot to plan if you want to pull this kind of birthday party for your kids. You have to talk to the animal rescue, make sure they allow birthday parties, send out the invitations, buy all the birthday supplies, and get everything set up on the day of the party. It makes sense that they might forget to ask if they get to bring food, so the kids could feed the animals, if that is even a possibility.

Apparently, that is a possibility at the animal rescue below, and the couple who knew to ask about it came prepared with buckets full of food they bought for the animals. When they arrived at the rescue, they were met with a kid's birthday party, which led all of the kids to see the food they brought and immediately demand some so they could feed the animals themselves.

Since the couple spent their own money on the food for the animals, they weren't exactly keen to share it with a bunch of strange kids, but it wasn't easy for them to stop all of them from grabbing the food. Even the parents didn't try to stop them, and joined the demands that the couple share. But the couple is not in charge of entertaining the kids, and if anyone at the party wants to feed the animals, they should find their own food to give out.
