Description[edit | edit source]

Animal Assisted Therapy (AAT) is a therapeutic approach that incorporates specially trained animals into healthcare to enhance the well-being of individuals with cognitive or physical disabilities. AAT is used by various health professionals, for example, occupational therapists, physiotherapists, psychologists and more. The most common types of AAT are canine therapy and equine therapy, but other animals including farm animals, cats and guinea pigs are also being used.
