Therapy Ferrets by Terrell H.

 

      Therapy animals are the best! Here’s why ferret as an example. They bond closely and quickly with people, and when you’re down they check on you or kiss you to make feel better. Ferrets help with depression and anxiety with people who suffer through health issues. The ferrets don’t get stressed with moving a lot since they’re trained and friendly. They are great therapy animals. 

     To start off, ferrets cure depression by comforting their owners. They have good behavior and offer companionship. Their best Benefits are they’re small, so they can ride on airplanes. They are calm and easy to carry. They’re bathroom trained so they won’t make a mess. They don’t bark, fight, or run around everywhere. They’re almost trained to wake up their owners and tell them to take their medication. They don’t need a lot of food. They also give comfort to emotion symptoms. The article that stated these benefits was found on “Be Ferrets.”
