Massage for Your Feline

Course introduction:
Cats are not small dogs.... but they sure do enjoy massage as much as their canine housemates.  This mini-class is designed for animal caregivers with a feline at home that needs to get their purr-motor going!

At-home massage can be used for numerous situations and animal life-styles such as: 

• Facilitating family unit/human-animal bonding
• Encouraging positive associations with touch
• Relieving muscle tension, arthritis, and improving circulation
• Providing environmental enrichment and mental stimulation
