We have a cat in our dementia unit we have a member of staff who purchases his food takes him for his vet check ups etc He is lovely and lazy some staff don't like him but some people don't like cats! I'm allergic so of course he always wants me to stroke him. Sometimes he brings in a mouse as a present but there is always someone who will dispose of the body. residents really like him talk to him and stroke him and he is of course a topic of conversation.
Can anyone advise of a facility that has introduced a cat to live full time at the home. I have been asked about introducing one of my rescue cats to a home and would love to speak with a home that has a cat currently. it would be great to get feedback
