3. “Joy For All” interactive companions
| The Joy for All companion pets are a Eugeria team favourite. They steal the show whenever we visit a residence with these cute pets in our arms! Senior residents instantly smile, talk, and laugh with them.
These pets are designed to break your loved one’s social isolation. They recreate animals’ reactions (they purr, bark, wag their tail) and have sensors to react to the touch and sounds of their owner. The Joy for All Companion pets are particularly useful for seniors who have had pets their entire lives, but for various reasons can’t have one anymore. |
