Mews and Nips: Therapy Cat Helps Ease Travel Stress at Minneapolis-St. Paul Airport

Traveling just a got a little less stressful if you’re flying through Minneapolis. 11-year-old Stitches provides purr therapy at the busy Minneapolis-St. Paul airport. According to The Twin Cities Pioneer Press, the tabby mix is the first cat to join the airport’s comfort animal support team, the 96 Animal Ambassador program. Stitches is usually being wheeled around in a stroller with a sign that says “Pet Me!” on the top. She even has her own business cards that people can take with them after a nice neck scratching session. For more about Stitches and a video of her on the job, visit Travel and Leisure.
