Stitches the Cat Becomes Resident Therapy Animal At Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport
“It’s
no longer uncommon to see Golden Retrievers or Labradors wondering around
airports providing busy travelers with a moment of calmness. Therapy dogs have
become a part of airport strategies to help people cope with the chaos of
travel, but one airport has taken a different approach to therapy animals.
Minneapolis-Saint
Paul International Airport announced their newest therapy animal on November 8,
2019, Stitches.
Stitches,
an 11-year-old, 13-pound tabico cat—mixture of tabby & calico—is currently
on duty at the airport. She’s hard to miss as she’s chauffeured around Terminal
1 in her stroller sporting a large “pet me” sign—letting everyone know she’s
ready for cuddles.
…the
Twin Cities Pioneer Press reports that Stitches is a member of North Star
Therapy Animals & has been a therapy cat for the past 3 years. When she’s
not at the airport, she can be found helping at nursing homes or relaxing at
home watching her favorite show, Law & Order: SVU.
If
you’re traveling through the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport, you
could just be lucky enough to meet her for snuggles…”
