Pet therapy
Anam Cara Therapy offers Pet Therapy to nursing homes, schools, libraries, rehab facilities and hospitals. Call 083.859.9551 for availability. Midnight is a 10 year old, male, black cat, trained as part of the MCSPCA Pet Therapy Team. He was one of only 5 cats, on a team consisting of mostly dogs. Midnight had to pass a test for inclusion on the Pet Therapy Team. This test featured a group of young children running toward him, jumping and yelling and another group of people on crutches and in wheelchairs. He passed the test, remaining calm.
Midnight is a gentle cat, raised by Máire Rían from a kitten, with a natural gift to soothe people. Midnight even acts as a companion cat to Serafina, his bonded partner, who has been diagnosed with anxiety. She has mostly overcome her anxiety due to Midnight’s calming influence and natural remedies.
