He is a real entrepreneur!

A Rhode Island boy with a passion for animals channeled his love for all four-legged things into a business that helped him earn enough money to adopt a kitten of his own.

Luka Aplin, 6, from Warwick, used the proceeds from a dog poop collection business to bring home her rescue cat, Pebble, whom she named Poopascoopalka.

It may not be the most glamorous job in the world, but Luca definitely understands the value of the service he provides.

“People hate picking up dog poop,” the boy told WJAR. “I don't care about that. I don't care about that at all.”

Affordably priced at $15, he points out, “$20 for multiple dogs.” Luca cleans out a problem dog coil in his neighbor's yard until it shines like new.

“It's fun. I love cleaning. It's like one of my favorite things,” the freshman told the outlet.

Luca started volunteering at the local animal shelter where his mother, Robin Bouchard, works. Together, the mother-son team has fostered or found homes for 98 rescue animals. That number continues to grow.

“He's the first one to come into the building, and he immediately starts folding laundry. He sweeps and mops the floors, and he tells everyone, 'I love my job, I love my job every day. I love coming to ,'” Bouchard said.

Luca met and fell in love with Pebble while working at a shelter, but due to his unpaid volunteer work, he couldn't afford the adoption fee or the cost of raising the pet.

“He asked me, 'How can I raise the money? How can I raise the money to adopt this kitten?' Because he couldn't live without her. Because I felt it,” Bouchard said.

The enterprising young man wasted no time in devising a plan to earn the necessary cash, and just like that, “Poopaskuparka” was born.

After several weeks of hard work, Luca has enough cash to bring home his new best friend.

Bouchard told the outlet that Luca is already looking for ways to raise money to save more animals.

“Honestly, I have the coolest kids in the world, and I think it's pretty unique to be so aware of the rescue crisis across the state and country,” she said. Ta.
