Feline Friends at Capital High School

Why Cats are the Perfect Companion Animals

At Capital High School, we understand that students often face stress and anxiety. That's why we're excited to introduce our new feline friends program, where trained therapy cats will be available for students to interact with during lunch breaks or after school. These gentle animals have been known to reduce stress levels and promote relaxation.

Research has shown that simply petting a cat can lower blood pressure, heart rate, and cortisol levels, making them the purr-fect companion animal for our students.

The Benefits of Feline Therapy

Therapy cats have been used in various settings such as hospitals, nursing homes, and rehabilitation centers to provide emotional support and comfort. They are trained to be gentle and affectionate, making them an excellent addition to our school community.

By having these therapy cats on campus, we hope to create a more welcoming and supportive environment for all students.

How You Can Get Involved

We are excited to announce that our feline friends program will be open to all students, faculty, and staff. If you're interested in volunteering or simply spending time with the therapy cats, please reach out to our school administration for more information.

We believe that this program will not only benefit our students but also provide a sense of purpose and fulfillment for those involved.
