Nursing Home

 

We have numerous types of shows that are popular with nursing homes and retirement centers!

Nursing homes have us back many times each year to do a different show each time!

Residents will always be learning about different kinds of animals while experiencing therapeutic petting of the animals!

Whether you're interested in having us do one show or inviting us back many times, any of the shows below are well worth the time!

For additional types of shows, please call us and  ask for more details!

 



Intro to Wildlife Shows: this type of show teaches the residents about all different types of wildlife. We bring 6-7 animals to this show. We take one animal out at a time to talk about and let the residents see up close. We can also let the residents pet some of the animals! The cost for this show is $200 and a traveling fee may apply.

This is a great way to do something unique and exciting for your residents!
 

 

Pet Therapy: this type of show can be done a few different ways:

a. we can bring more"pettable" than "exotic" animals and do the Wild Animal Show listed above

b. we can bring only pettable animals and talk to the residents on a more individual basis. The focus would be to let the residents spend some time with the animals by either petting them for awhile or having them on their laps.

c. we can bring a mixture of animals and go from room to room with them. The focus would be to talk to the residents in a 1-on-1 atmosphere where they could pet some of the animals as I talk about them.

 

Butterfly Release: this type of show is dedicated to teaching the residents about Backyard Wildlife. We start with introducing them to their own wild backyard and then we focus on the stages of butterfly development. We can either set up a butterfly exhibit that will stay at your facility until the butterflies are ready to be released, so the residents can actually watch the different stages of growth take place. Or we can keep the butterflies at our facility until they are ready to be released, then bring them to your facility, have the same discussion as above, and then have the residents watch the butterflies being released outside! This type of show is a unique experience that the residents enjoy and will find very fascinating! This type of show can only be performed from June through August.

 

Resident & Animal Appreciation Day: for this type of show we come in with 3-4 animals and we take pictures of the residents with an animal! The residents can keep their picture to show to their friends and family!Not all of our animals are "picture-friendly", we can discuss which ones will be used when you call to book your show.

 

We also have other shows we can do for those facilities that are interested in inviting us back more than once and who want a different type of show each time! Please call us and ask for more details!
