Château Sainte-Marie
Pet therapy can be practiced in the form of:
- Individual
- Band
- Group with individual visit to the rooms
Number of individuals
The number of individuals per groupmust be of25 people maximum, otherwise you have to make several groups or take scrolling mode.
If you exceed this number per group, we may refuse to do the activity or charge you for more.additional costs per person added.
Do you say also that 25 animals are freeur people at the same time, this therefore requires a lot of management and monitoring for the facilitators.
In case of severe disability, it is recommended to form groups of onemaximum of 12 people.
The animators
Depending on your choice, the animators can be dressed in civilian or pirate.
During the holidays, it is possible for our animators to wear Christmas hats.
The number of facilitators vary according to the number of participating individuals.
Between 2-4 animators
Animal selection
Our birds are selected before our departure.
There is also another selection made on site according to several criteria:
- Is the individual afraid of movements?
- Is this one afraid of sounds?
- Is this one afraid of bright colors?
- Is this one afraid of big parrots?
- Others
No guarantee on the choice of animals brought on site, but you can still make your requests.
Animal handling
Our strength: Each individual has an animal on him.
A rotation of birds is regularly done by our team.
This allows you to have a wonderful experience with several species.
Our visit makes it possible to elicit reactions aimed at maintaining or improving cognitive, physical, psychological or social potential. A beautiful moment that makes them forget everything around them (pain, grief, loneliness, etc.).
We usually bring more than 25 birds of all kinds.
What is required
Ideally 2 large tables
1-2 bins
Chairs for participants who need them
Place the chairs in a semi-circle in front of the tables.
Free parking near the front door for a promoter truck.
What is reWhos, room plan and rules
An indoor room (ideally at theground floor if possible of course and without carpet)
2-3 bigs-tables
1-2 bins
Chairs for participants who need them
Place the chairs in a semi-circle in front of the tables or in a row with central space and space between the rows for good movement of the facilitators.
The room must be set up before our arrival.
Walkershave to be as soon as possible packed away or put in a corner of the room.
We ask you to put the brakes on wheelchairs for the duration of the activity, so that users do not rollcontinually during the activity for the safety of the animators and the animals.
All stakeholders and staff must not manage the animals, only the users.
They do not know our animals, their reaction and howinteract for the safety of the user and the animal.
These must not interfere with the interventions of our team.
They can take photos at any time and we strongly encourage you to do so.
The team may at any time require:
- direct the air conditioning to another direction
- stop ventilation (for animal safety)
- remove a person who shows signs of violence
- take out a sick person (flu-like or infectious signs)
Especially in the winter season, we have to unload animals and equipment quickly. We need to have quick access. To help us, if you have transport trolleys, these will be very useful to us.
Free parking near the front door for a Dodge Promaster 2500 truck.
In case of parking fees, you must reimburse our driver for his fees before he leaves.
A person in charge must be present at all times during the activity in the room, in order to supervise the users. If there is no manager in the room at the start time, we will delay the start until someone in charge arrives. The activity will not be extended, since it is your responsibility.

Food allergy
For people with peanut food allergies and with nuts, you must inform the animators before the start of the activity.
Theycan still take some birds that do not eat it in their daily diet (dove, lovebird, cockatiels, conures, etc.).
Since the beginning of our activities, there have never been any cases.
This is purely for prevention.
Insurance
Civil and bodily liability with Co-Operators.
Inform yourself, because often animal animation or pet therapy companies do not have the bodily liability part. In the event of a dispute, your home insurance not knowing the risk factor and will not want to deal with the situation.
For our part, you have nothing to worry about, because we have both!

thatis a contract loss fee?
When you book less than 3 hours of activity and there are several hours of road there and back. NOTWe still have to book time slots monopolizing half a day to a full day in our booking diary. This therefore prevents us from booking several activities during the day and by the same token this causes a potential loss of income.
