We would like to introduce BigBob, a 10-year old cat who has been part of our family since August 2017. He was quite overweight and diabetic when he came home. Right now, his diabetes is under control with diet (and some weight loss), but we still do weekly blood testing. (It is just like blood testing for humans!)
Right now, he is in pre-training as a therapy pet and is practicing meeting people in different environments, walking with his harness, and more. (This week, he visited the ticket office at the ferry.) We hope to schedule BigBob’s temperament testing early this summer, and then we’ll begin formal training to become a therapy pet.
We are excited to watch BigBob’s progress toward joining Blue Heron as a Therapy Pet!
