I told this story on another blog, so I hope it wasn’t yours, but…
I have a friend whose preteen daughter regularly has open-heart surgeries requiring lengthy hospital stays. She’s obsessed with cats, and a library robot cat would be AMAZING as an affordable kitten substitute until she can get home to her own menagerie.
OMG, yes! Therapy in the most unassuming form. I wish all the best for your friend and her daughter.
Hi, Laura! I just wanted to leave a short comment commending the style of your presentation. Your layout choices are both accessible and authoritative, and feel quite polished and professional. Excellent work!
Ugh, THANK YOU, for saying so, MJ! I’m not gonna lie, Google Docs gave me so much guff with the formatting at the end, causing me loads of frustration, so I appreciate the shout out. : )
Lendable pets?? Mind blowing. I have never heard of this and I love it so much!
Right?! It resonated with me too when I read it in AL Magazine. I just love the picture too. 🥲 Thanks for commenting.
@lauraw I love this and I didn’t realize that the lending of alternative items was called a “Library of Things.” I actually needed this term for my final research paper for another class! 🙂 It was very helpful!
I like the idea of these robotic animals. I definitely can see the benefit of them for elders who have memory issues. I have heard of baby dolls being used, but a robotic pet would be great too! My grandmother who is 98 years old recently lost her dog and has been having a hard time accepting and internalizing the loss. I think something like this could be helpful for her.
Great job of your project! I like how clean and easy to read it is too!
