Pets are taken
by volunteers and staff to visit with
residents of nursing homes and other
institutions. The psychological benefits of pets are so important. In addition
to providing companionship and pleasure, pets give joy comfort and love. There
is a volume of scientific evidence to back up this common sense knowledge. Pets
are extremely helpful in reducing stress, improving health, and increasing well
being. Presently our program is in desperate need of more volunteers. If you
think you would be interested in this rewarding experience please call the New
Rochelle Humane Society at (914) 632-2925.
