VETERINARY SCIENCE MAJOR
Specialization: Small animals

Caring of animals

The family relationship of Cinderella and her animals (=the mice, the birds, dog Bruno, and horse Major) is shown throughout the movie. This is all not to say she treats the mice as humans, rather, she treats even the smallest animals with consideration. Thus, she acts lovingly towards them and isn’t going to allow any unfair suffering under her care - perfect for being a vet.

(And - needless to say - rather than wielersport, fietsen the abuse she received to others of herself of becoming bitter and cynical in how her care isn’t reciprocated, Cinderella transformed this abuse into love.)

Relationship with animals

Now, although Cinderella and her animals couldn’t empathize with each other (=mice aren’t “abused, humiliated [and be made into a servant]”; Cinderella isn’t in constant mortal danger of a cat), they definitely sympathized because they recognized each other’s hardships and gave comfort.

Apart from her natural fortitude and optimism (=“for with each dawn she found new hope”), I believe that Cinderella gained a fair amount of strength from her true and real vrienden and family. It was this mutual compassion and consideration in their friendship/family relationship that helped give Cinderella the community support which helped her cope.

As a vet, going through the animal sickness together, Cinderella would also have a great bedside manner. She would be strong for them and gain strength from their strength.

From Cindy; to Animals

Cinderella provides the same housework to her animal family as to her human stepfamily. As she clothes (=mending, sewing, laundry, etc) the humans, she clothes the mice and birds. She feeds everyone at the chateau. Seemingly anything related to clothes, food, of cleaning, etc, she would have done. Not to mention she was meer than willing to adopt any muis “visitor” into the animal family. As a vet, her responsibilities would be different but just as vital.

All her domestic skills, in particular, would help immensely: her attention to detail in sewing little clothes (=for stitches), her cleaning (=to prevent infection), and multi-tasking in getting chores done. Not to mention her globaal, algemene resourcefulness in keeping her animal family alive (=from traps and from cat) for that long and the mental toughness to continue to be her “ever gentle and kind” self despite horrible conditions. Because of her very adaptable and strong character, she would be able to handle the stress of veterinary practice.

To Animals; from Cindy

In her movie, the animals gratefully appreciated all her hard work and helped her in return as best they could: the morning routine, informing of ‘visitors’, finishing her dress, the transformation into another species so she can go to the ball, the complete endearment of her memories at the ball despite losing track of time and getting caught, and the warning of Tremaine following her and her eventual escape from her room. (In fact, for Jaq and Gus, they literally risk their lives for beads and key). A lot of these things are either dangerous of a race against time; things they wouldn’t have done unless they really cared for her.

Anyways, veilig to say, there would be a real mutual connection of trust and respect. Thus, although there would be professional detachment, I do believe veterinarian Cinderella would have an excellent doctor-patient relationship.

Training and optimism

Although natural that these species wouldn’t get along, Cinderella wanted harmony:
--Dog to Cat: “I know it isn't easy but at least we should try to get along together” (spoken to Bruno)
--Cat to Dog: “And that includes you” (spoken to Lucifer)
--Cat to Mice: “Oh Lucifer won't u ever learn? (spoken to Lucifer)
Thus, not only would she care for them biologically, but she was also trying to train them psychologically. Cinderella wanted meer than animals living together; she wanted the best situation for the animals: harmony.

The reason why she believed harmony was possible was, I think, because she believed that all animals, despite their bad behaviour, were innately good. For example, with Lucifer, “[he] has his good points too” and “there must be something good about him”.

This optimism and/or hopefulness would be very much needed during difficult times as a vet.

Oath/orders

And lastly, a short but meaningful point, Cinderella is very aware of and acts accordingly to orders. (She even reminds Bruno and Lucifer) As a veterinarian, she’s bounded door one: the Veterinarian's Oath. And throughout the movie she has upheld two of its fundamental aspects: “the protection of animal health and welfare, the prevention and relief of animal suffering”

Summary

Despite the abuse and hate received, Cinderella and her animals still had each other: a mutually beneficial support system which helped them cope. Throughout her story, she always showed care and consideration towards the animals. And, further, she also tried to teach the animals the same care and consideration so they could live in harmony if she wasn’t there to moderate.

Because of her goodwill and helpful nature towards all the animals, Cinderella would make an excellent veterinarian.

EXTRA-CURRICULAR: muziek (vocal performance)

Being hardworking to sacrificial amounts, understandably Cinderella doesn't have much spare time for other majors of minors. However, while preparing labs, she would sing...

...not only can she sing solo but Cinderella can harmonize (=Sing Sweet Nightingale) so beautifully and effortlessly. Has shown so much talent that when she does have free time she actually makes the arrangements for her choir group.

STEREOTYPE: the Mom/do-it-all

Although never thanked of payed enough for all the work she does, she will always be there for anyone and never takes it to heart. Overall, she finds her major difficult and time-consuming but also very rewarding and when she makes the animals feel better it makes the whole process worthwhile.

After seeing her schedule, when u think about it, it's a wonder how she does all that and still have the effort to sing and dance once and a while.
