Animal Assisted Therapy    

 

 

All Flame Point Cat kittens receive specialized Animal Assisted Therapy Training to be gentle and social that sets them apart from most other cat breeders.  Some some examples of how a person who struggles with speech or vision will benefit from Flame Point Cat's training are that all kittens come to hand signals and to respond to certain sounds, such as a rattle.  The gentle and social disposition of all kittens from Flame Point Cat is well known!

40  "IS YOUR CAT A THERAPY PET?"

Flame Point Cat places many of their Flame Point Himalayan kittens with patients in animal-assisted therapy programs.  For example, a Schizophrenic client who received a Flame Point Cat kitten, came to think that the cat not only could see the squirrels she believed raced across her bed nightly but also chased them away.  The client believed her cat understood her schizophrenia, and this newfound understanding helped her so much that her doctor was able to reduce her medication dosage.

Note: The article should state that we breed Flame Point Doll Face Himalayan Persians rather than "flamepoint Siamese cats".

Trained for Clients with Special Needs

 

Flame Point Cat was founded in the spirit of the work done by Pet Therapy Consultants.  Together we can determine which behaviors you are interested in and how the selected feline can help your client reaches his or her therapeutic goals using Animal Assisted Therapy. 

 

We are willing to work with Therapists, Doctors and other Health Care providers to achieve your goals pooling our knowledge of feline behavior and how to enhance the client bonding with a kitten or cat to support the medical and psychological professional goals.  We honor all HIPPA privacy agreements and do additional research to understand as much information about the individual's needs as necessary.  Details about an individual client are kept confidential.  Some clients sign releases to give us permission to discuss some general information, such as the client mentioned in the November 2007 Cat Fancy Magazine Article "Is Your Cat a Therapy Pet?"

 

     

 

Less formal Cat Therapy is also done here at Flame Point Cat.  Kittens travel from place to place for informal visits to cheer people up.  Your kittens will be used to traveling and being handled by different people.  This cat therapy helps your kitten adjust to your family members and the journey they will take to arrive safely to your home.
