Meeting with dolls in Senior Citizens' Homes
We would like to thank Mrs. Jitka Lászlóvá, Kateřina Grohmanová, Sabina Sedláčková, Daniela Hypšová and Gabriela Becková for their sponsorship and help in making the dolls' outfits.We would like to thank our Czech and German language students for their kindness, which allows us to spread joy and support the activation of seniors in the accompanying program of felinotherapy - activation with dolls. Hands-on, haptic stimulation helps to promote the activity of both cerebral hemispheres and their cooperation, bringing joy and well-being to all participants.

IAABC is dedicated to the protection of animals, promoting their welfare, breeding, training using non-invasive methods, linking the science of animal behavior with all areas of animal involvement in human activities including Animal Assisted Interventions - Zootherapy. We have opened the door to education that is not yet available in the Czech Republic compared to Western countries. We have the opportunity to work with great scientists, veterinarians, animal behavior consultants and world renowned trainers.
