This 6 month old kangaroo came to visit the ER today. She is used as pet therapy for Alzheimer patients. She was very sweet and didn't mind as every passed her around.
We were told that the facility "borrows" the kangaroo until it starts to hop too much, when that happens it is then returned to a type of breeding facility.

Aww...how cute! How'd you keep yourself from taking him/her home with you? I would have been tempted for sure!
Kangaroos are a first for me. I have heard of dogs and cats for pet therapy but not a kangaroo. That must be such a sight.
Ho cute is that!! Its not every day that you get to hold a baby kangaroo!
So what does it do for Alzheimer patients? How does it help?
I'm guessing in part because you hold it like a baby. It just stayed on it's back like that the whole time.
