I am a school teacher. I teach first grade at a low income school. A lot of my students have traumatic home lives and are stressed out or anxious. Research has shown that having a pet in the classroom is good for the well being of students and when they read to an animal it improves their reading scores. However, I didn't want to have a real animal that I would have to feed, take care of, and worry about allergies. I was given this cat for my classroom. I told the kids it wasn't real, but they treat it like it's real. They named it, it has a cat bed, and they love "taking care of it". They take turns holding it, sometimes it's sitting on their desks while they work. When a student gets upset, they can pet it and cuddle with it. When it becomes a distraction I turn it off and put it away. It was the best gift I could have received for my class! I highly recommend this for teachers.

My mother loves her cat. It is fun to see her light up, talk and interact with the kitty.

Very life like in appearance, sounds, and motions. Many people are not sure if it is real at first. Battery life is much longer then I had thought it would be. This is a very helpful companion for my nursing care bound mom.

My mom is suffering from dementia. She loved the cat when I brought it to her. She hardly ever goes anywhere in her assisted living facility without it.This was a god send to me to make her happy. Thanks for having such a product.

Got this for my 85 year old mom a couple of years ago when it first came out. She lives alone and fortunately has all her wits about her. She loves it! Says its best Xmas present ever. The batteries last a long time, I replaced them after a year though it still had decent power from the old ones.
