Active cats, specially developed for people with dementia and Alzheimer's disease, can provide great support in the treatment of these people.
Dementia poses significant challenges for patients themselves, as well as for the family members and caregivers who care for them. Dementia and Alzheimer's disease are incurable and progress inexorably. As long as there are no medications or therapies, the focus of dementia care is on improving the patient's well-being.
It is particularly important to create an atmosphere of safety, security, and appreciation, and to remind people of earlier, healthy times. To achieve this, alternative aids and treatment methods are increasingly being used for dementia patients. Special cuddly toys , specifically developed for dementia and Alzheimer's patients, have been shown to have a calming effect.
Behind this lies the obvious realization that people with dementia often feel better when they feel they can take care of things themselves. It has often been observed that, by playing with stuffed animals, people with dementia who were almost speechless begin to speak again, and even patients with word-finding difficulties are able to formulate fluent and appropriate sentences again.
Our favorite pets are especially cats and dogs. RobiCare's active cats Blacky and Lucy were recreated as realistically as possible, with big, round eyes, a snub nose, and chubby cheeks, in realistic size and (importantly!) weight. Lying on your lap, they invite you to pet them and talk to them. Their needs for physical closeness, attention, and responsibility are thus satisfied, providing stimulation, interaction, communication, care, and well-being.
Scientific findings regarding appearance, feel, weight, and size were incorporated into the development of RobiCare's Blacky and Lucky cuddly cats, which are crucial in the treatment of people with dementia and Alzheimer's disease. The goal is to stimulate motor, sensory, and cognitive abilities. These high-quality cuddly toys are handmade in Germany. They impress with their high-quality workmanship, high-quality materials, and loving design.
The cats are approximately 45 cm tall, like adult cats. Thanks to their weight of approximately 1.5 kg (granulate filling), they can be gently snuggled, cuddled, and snuggled on your arm or lap. This keeps restless people and hands occupied and helps them calm down. Their fur is very supple and soft, and their face is friendly and inviting, with big, round eyes and a cheerful expression. The fabrics and materials used have different textures, stimulating the senses (touch and sensation) of people with dementia. They are the ideal companion for people with dementia or Alzheimer's disease.
This blog post is accompanied by an incredibly good review verified by "Trusted Shops" from a buyer who ordered the RobiCare empathy cat:
"The delivery was flawless and quick. Roby the cat is a blessing for people with dementia. My mother (who suffers from dementia) has rediscovered herself thanks to Roby. She has more joy again, has a purpose, and no longer feels alone because Roby guards her room. She enjoys cuddling with him and is captivated by his eyes. With tears of joy, she told me: His fur feels like my dog's (whom she sadly no longer has), and she is simply happy. A big thank you and "hats off" to everyone who contributed to the creation of Roby the cat."
