Oh yeah...I forgot to add this in my last diary entry, but Meowmy and I had our first animal assisted therapy pre-screening yesterday last Friday at the American Humane Association in Denver. This is basically to see if I'm fit for the job. Well, I was a little nervous but my meowmy says I did a fabulous job! I just concentrated on being my usual charming and happy self so that the evaluators could see what I have to offer. I like meeting and being around new people and I even like dogs (there are lots of therapy dogs I'll probably have to work with), so it was really a piece of cake for me!

The prospective therapy cats like me in the Pet Partners program will be exposed to more challenging scenarios during the final evaluation (which will be in August); this was just the initial one to see if I had "the right stuff". Next step is the in-class training meowmy have to do the week after next....glad I don't have to do that one!
