Foster Care, Youth Homes, Care Centers

At youth supporting facilities, we educate and create enthusiasm as well as give kids the opportunity to cuddle a non-judgmental creature.  We so often see excitement bubbling over as children and teens learn about different animals and feel great pride in holding and caring for living beings during our visits.  We’ve inspired many kids to put their energy into having their very own pet to care for one day, creating empathy for living creatures.  In our media-heavy world, we seek to encourage a deep sense of connection.
