Animals such as cats and dogs and many other animals help with therapy and recovery of many hoomans.

This day no only helps honor those animals giving therapy, but also the handlers who receive the therapy too. It also a day to help raise awareness of the role of animals in aiding in therapy.

A Therapy animal is a form of a service animal, that you would see with a blind person or even a deaf person. In this case, it is usually for those in therapy, such as social, mental, anxiety, etc.

Having and holding a pet can help reduce stresses and anxieties.

This awareness day is held annually on April 30.
