Relieving Those Senior Moments

We never outgrow our need to be loved. But too frequently as we age, we are cut off from friends and family. Maybe the senior has outlived all of his or her relations or maybe they are just too busy. A pet can often soften the long hours of solitude and be just the impetus needed to get off that couch and take the dog for a walk.
But this companionship comes with a price tag that especially in these difficult economic times, makes it impossible for a elder American to own and care for a pet.
Today’s guest, from Purina Pet Care, Brenda Bax, and Joann Turnbull of the Delta Society will tell us how they two organizations have teamed up to bring ‘Pets for Seniors’.
