Hello all
I have two sons who have ADHD and ASD we are trying to get permission for them to have a cat as an emotional support animal especially for my eldest who suffers from anxiety
Our Management company requires a letter from a medical professional recommending that he have the cat as an emotional support animal.
We have sent a letter asking our GP for assistance but is there anywhere else that anyone can suggest we try in order to get this letter please?
How would a cat be trained as anything other than just a pet? How old are the boys? Would a cat be safe with them?
The cat does not need to be trained it is there for emotional support. The boys are turning 8 and 11 at the end of the month and yes neither of them are aggressive or would harm the cat in any way.
