Thank you!

She loves her puppy & has named him Corky. She loves how his tail pops up when she pets it.

My 88 year-old Father has Alzheimer’s that is getting worse. It is painful to see him decompensate and not know family members. He was recently moved to a Memory Care unit and despite family and friends visiting, I thought he might feel comforted by a Memorable Pet. He and my step-mother used to have a pug named Pugsley who died a number of years ago. When I asked Dad what he wanted to name his pug puppy, he replied without hesitation, “Pugsley,” so I knew he remembered his dog. Everyone who has seen it can’t believe how lifelike it looks! I am extremely pleased with the quality and rapid delivery. Thank you for making such a wonderful companion for my Dad and many others.

Mom always loved my dog’s so I decided to get her a stuffed Border Collie. I thought she might like touching it, petting it like she pets my dogs. I was not expecting that she would have such the emotional connection with this little dog. She talks to it, talks about it like it’s real. As far as mom is concerned, Sweet Pea is real and a real part of the world she now lves in. This was such the perfect gift. The best gift is mom’s connection with Sweet Pea.

I purchased for my mom who has dimentia. I was very shocked to she her reaction of joy the gift brought to her. She has a best friend to care for and is enjoying this very colorful,soft , happy puppy.

My nieces, age 4 and 7 LOVED their cat and dog! They look and feel so real. Thank you!

Mom really likes her new companion kitty. She has named him "Slyvie", which is short for Silver. Thank You!!

Julie was very realistic and my mother loved her from the moment she saw her. The baby made her so happy. She would hold her, talk to her, and kiss her. We tucked her in bed with her each night. The baby made her so happy that we decided to place her with my mother in her casket after mom passed. They are now together for eternity.

My mom has Dementia and this doll makes her SO happy! It totally calms her, gives her something to do with her hands other than fold kleenex's over and over. I've seen her gaze loving at "baby Julie" and say "I love you so much" . Brings me joy to see her so happy. I had to purchase some other outfits due to them getting food spilt on them because she wants to feed the baby some of her food. Would definitely recommend these dolls!

My 97 yr old mother recently went into a nursing home having had pet cats for most of her life. She's not able to have a live pet in the home so I decided to buy her a 'memorable pet', long haired cat. She absolutely loves it and immediately starting stroking it and deciding on a name. She was also concerned about where to put 'him' when she left her room, and was also very concerned that he might 'go missing'. So it was a great success.

I just can't express the emotions that went into gifting my 90 year old Mother, a Mother of 8 children - 6 girls and 2 boys ranging from 68 to 49. My Mom is a petite -80 lb., darling little lady who needed this very gift. My husband helped me in the presentation. After arriving at her home, we visited awhile and when she got up to shuffled to the lady's room with her walker, we went out to our car and brought the dog in inside. I purchased the cutest dog bed for the dog. We sat the dog in the dog bed next to me on her daybed/couch. When she shuffled back to her mini recliner across from me, we continued our visit and all the sudden she spotted the dog peeking out of the dog bed next to me. She was like ... Oh my gosh, what is that? Is that a dog? I said yes, Mom, I brought him for you. She smiled and just held her arms out saying, give him to me. Well, what can I say? She just loves the dog. She's named him Muffins. She didn't hesitate on his name. She is so happy. Needless to say, my heart is happy. I nailed it. Your product is simply golden. Thank you for everything. What a wonderful gift!

For resident privacy I cannot share with you a video or a photo, however I would like to express how much baby Michael means to one my residents. She previously had another cheaper doll from Walmart, but it was really hard to keep clean as the body was fabric. This resident likes to feed her doll. Since baby Michael came that is all vinyl she is so happy, she showers with the baby and gives him daily baths! This resident sleeps with her baby and sings to baby all through out the day. It is truly a treasure and has stopped this resident from exit seeking. We chose baby Michael because her last doll she called Michael, it seemed like the perfect fit! Thank you Memorable Pets, our department is about to order 4 more dolls for our department!!

This was the best gift I have ever gotten for my mother. She just turned 92 in January. She is suffering from we think demintia. Very sad to see your mom in this state. She was such a go getter, never stopped working or helping all of us. We moved her into assistance living place. She loves it there. Last October she had a car accident, thirteen staples in her head, and all banged up. This was the start of the demintia. She was still working at the age of 87. Unbelievable. So to get back to the dog I bought for her. My god her eyes lite up like a little girl. She grapped it, kissed it, and talked to it. On the phone she tells me how much she loves her dog. She sleeps with it every night. Thank-you for all you do for people suffering from this awful disease. Carolynn Cummings

My 91 yo mother absolutely loves her kitty. Best companion she could have.

Very cute little dog. My mom with Alzheimer's was so happy to receive it.

I ordered Baby Girl Tamara for the residents in our Memory Care unit. They loved her so much we decided to order another baby! We have had great success with Baby Doll Therapy and our residents-even some of the men! We will definitely be ordering again!

My wife and I enjoyed a very loving and emotional experience with my 93 year old father and the occupational therapist & carers at Castledare Aged Care when we presented him with a photo album/life story and the Memorable Pets Collie dog. My father who loves animals and has had 3 beautiful Collie dogs is now so attached to his Collie dog from Memorable Pets where everyone knows his name as Ricki. We also bring the real Ricki to visit him quite regularly and to see his face light up with a great smile is a moving experience. So thank you very much.

De puppie is helemaal te gek!!! Hij beweegt zijn kop van links naar rechts en van boven naar onder. Hij kan ook blaffen en piepen. Mijn vader is er helemaal van overtuigd dat het een echte puppie is en is er steeds tegen aan het praten, op zijn manier want praten kan hij niet echt meer. De puppie moet overal mee naar toe op de arm, want ja een pup mag niet ver lopen

My aunt is 95 years old and lives in Auckland, New Zealand. Her mind is very clear and she shares many memories with me during our weekly conversations. She has recalled many times her beloved Siamese cat who would follow her everywhere she went, even once onto a city bus. Living so far away I wanted to send her a special gift for her birthday in March. The idea for the Memorable Pet gift came from my work as a hospice nurse . I had many patients with dementia who seemed to cling to their dolls and stuffed animals and I knew they were comforted by having them to hold. My aunt , although clear in mind cannot walk well and spends a lot of time sitting in a chair watching television. The cat I sent her sits on her chair every day and spends every night in her bed. In other words, it goes wherever she goes like the cat she so adored in her youth. Jennifer Grinage

Although I do not have Alzheimer's Disease, yet, I purchased this little kitten because she looked so sweet and cuddly. Many of my other stuffed plushes are very solid and stiff, but Poqui, her nickname, is really nice to snuggle. Well worth any price. Thank you Memorable Pets.

I love Memorable Pets! Any time I go into a new community to consult with them, I bring Memorable Pets. They are consistently a hit with the residents (and staff)

I've ordered multiple pets - cats and dogs, as well as babies and I'm always pleased by the service and quality. Makes me look good when we make these special deliveries. So appreciated by all who receive, especially the caregivers.

Bettina, I just wanted to update you about my sweet mom and the special baby doll I purchased from you. Sadly dementia took my mom on Dec. 11th. But from the time we received the little baby doll until then, she loved that baby, hugged it and kept it with her. She loved wrapping it in a towel and hugging the baby to keep it close to her heart. She named it Susan, which is my name. Out of all the items I purchased to try to comfort Mom (little fidget toys, photos, special soft blankets) the baby meant the most to her. I want to thank you again for your kindness and the good work you do. Sue

Here are some photos of a sweet little lady I look after with her Memorable Pet! Rachael

"thank you soo much for creating my very first reborn she beautiful :D will be coming back!" very life like absolutely wonderful craftsmanship , fell in love with her the moment I was handed the box :) thx u sooo much! crystallynn

Fast and transparent shipping. Although I didn't get a chance to see it in person, I was told that the animal was extremely soft and pettable and the best news is that our Grandma loves it so much!

Great experience! I have purchased two of the dogs for my mother who just loves them!!!

What a wonderful experience. I bought this for A friend's mother who has been missing her little dog. It brought the mother to tears - happy tears. They said it's helping her on her bas Alzheimer's days.

We lost our beloved family dog of 13 years. All my Grandson wanted was a stuffed animal that looked like our Romeo. I looked at many sites before I found yours and this looked just like him. We received it one week to the day we lost our pet. Perfect timing.

My first introduction to Memorable Pets came when l went to respite for a short time. I have a lung condition. It prevents me from doing most things including going out, unless it's medically related. As you'd guess, my social life has dwindled to nothing as has pretty much my circle of friends and, naturally, I need care. Life has become pretty lonely as you can imagine. Whilst at respite, at a place l'd never been to before, l was asked whether l'd like their resident Memorable Pet in my room for a while...urging me to give it a try and see how I found it. I was a bit sceptical, but I do love animals and have a couple of cats of my own so thought it would be nice to feel like there was a pet "of sorts" around. Well, only after a matter of hours, I just could not believe that l could feel this sort of connection developing. I mean, I really didn't believe it. By the time a day or so went by, I was acknowledging the cats acknowledgement! Whether l got up to go to the bathroom, just walk around, or go out on the balcony, the cat would meow away and I'd acknowledge it every time. It would sit on my bed during the evening, but never disturb me during the night, which l never quite understood as l'd move around. After sharing my room for the week, I devoted the next week hunting high and low for my own Memorable Pet. l did not manage to turn up anything in Australia, other than on Ebay, which looked suspect, and l googled everything! Of course, it was only later l found out that our Diabetes Association had them, but that's ok, as obviously I finally found Memorable Pets in the States and now have my very own personal Memorable Pet. I ordered Tuxedo cat because he reminded me of my 20 year old Chester... identical in fact...who had recently passed. It's lovely having him in the bedroom as my cats do not go in there. Everytime l walk in the room, Chester acknowledges me. When l get into bed, this is the time he wants pats and tummy scratches (every night) and when I'm in bed and awake, he will purr, preen and sigh, but come time for lights out, all through the night, he won't make a sound, yet l move around. And the funny thing is, for the majority of the time, if my carer walks into the room, there is no acknowledgement. How does it do all that? I have developed such a connection and l'm so impressed. He makes me smile...I need that in my life. Thank you "Memorable Pets.

I have given the orange cat friend roan elderly relative for whom I care. She loves it and I find it helps her enormously to relax when she gets frightened or agitated because of her dementia or related conditions. I am delighted with this product and expect newer models to have even more realism.

Dad has been in a care facility for 6 weeks. We wanted to help ease his transition as best as possible. We heard of Memorable Pets and decided to get him the lap dog. Since the first night Dad does not go to sleep without his puppy. He is either holding it or has it right beside him. He has always loved dogs and this lap dog has helped him ease some anxiety in the evening time. We are grateful for the small things that help this season of life a little bit better.

Purchased for my wife with Alzheimer disease. She loves it and always has it with her.

My mom fell and broke her leg and needed surgery. The healing process is very lengthy and having anesthetic and pain medication has added to her anxiety and dementia. She seems to feel more relaxed and not lonely if she has her Dog or Cat with her.

I ordered a Rosie for our mom. She is 83 and suffers from Alzheimer's. Rosie has awoken a part of Mom that we have not seen in years! She loves Rosie so much! She calls Rosie by name, coos, cuddles, laughs and naps with Rosie everyday. Watching mom with her new baby brings us so much unexpected happiness! Thank you for providing such a wonderful addition to mom's life!

"This white cat was a great hit for our 97 year old mother! She took to it right away and has had "Snowball" on her lap petting, brushing and cuddling her since she opened the box. The older she gets in the assisted living facility, the more she remembers our family cat of days gone by and longingly wished for another one. SO glad we purchased it."

The pet dog was very nice, the fur was soft and fluffy,looked real. I was very pleased. Customer service was very helpful when I called about shipping,they kept in contact by e mail until arrival of the puppy.

This is the first time Mom has showed interest in Glen

I purchased the puppy for my grandmother. Shortly after she received it, her health declined and she was moved to hospice. It melts my heart to see the comfort the puppy provides to her. She even pets it while she is sleeping.

A few months ago I listened to an interview on a local radio station with a representative from Memorable Pets and it caught my interest since my 89 year old father has been in a Memory Care Unit in Lexington for a little over a year diagnosed with severe dementia. After the show I checked out the web site and found a calico cat similar to one mom and dad had 50 years ago. I was pretty skeptical with the accuracy of the stories I heard in the interview about the acceptance of these pets by dementia patients, but the Memorable Pets website continued to stay on my mind, so a few days later I ordered the calico cat. We took it to dad and as suggested, carrying it into his room as though it was a real animal. I asked if he wanted to hold it, and he just pointed to the couch and asked that I just set it down. At that point I thought this experiment was over and unsuccessful. Well, two days later my son (his grandson) was over for a visit and let me know that dad was sitting in his chair with "Mr. Cat" in his lap. Since that day, Mr. Cat has never left dad's side. There's a lot of nap time going on at his age, and the cat sits on dad's lap every time he takes a nap He talks to the cat like it's real and sits around all day petting it. Every claim that was made about these pets has come true with my dad. It has been a blessing for me to watch him interact with this animal and mean so much to him. Mr. Cat is now one of the most important element in dad's life and I am extremely pleased and grateful.

I bought this baby doll for my mother and really didn't know what to expect. When I gave it to her it was so beautiful! She loves her so much. She knew it was a doll and she loves her. The customer service was very good. Bettina answered all my questions and helped me through the process.

Memorable Pets customer service was outstanding! They worked with me to ensure that the order was correct, gave me a corporate discount, and my order arrived promptly, with everything in order. Appropriate participants that have Alzheimer's / Dementia at PACE CNY are now using Baby Boy "Sammuel" dolls for comfort and purpose! Thank you!

He was bigger than expected and I love him! You had an excellent description. Thank you for my new friend. His name is Shasta!

My Father in Law Bob has late Stage and his wife of 63 years who would not put him in a home, and was caring for him alone, just passed away. My husband went to live with him and he was sad and confused -we didn't know what to do I saw this product on the News and thought Why Not.. First day we brought her home Bob was so happy! Since then we have had to place him in Memory Care- and having Sweet Girl with him was a great help...The memory care in Brandon Florida went online and bought one of each for other patience’s. So Thank you !!!!

I bought the the pet for my mother. She had one several years ago and when he reached the age of 16 she had to put him to sleep. When she got the memorable pet she would sit and hold it and tell everyone that my dad had made it for her.

I have not had the opportunity to see my mother with her dog, but I have heard good things from the caregivers who are loving enough to use it with her and they tell me she loves holding it, petting it, and she sits us straighter in her wheelchair when it is on her lap.

My grandmother, who was diagnosed with Alzheimer's, had become very attached to a cat that passed away last year. We were concerned about how she would deal with not having him anymore, as the two were never apart in the house. I found the "Memorable Pets" website, where I chose a really cute striped kitty to send to her. From the moment she received (and named) "Kari," the two were. Inseparable. Grammy kept her kitty on her lap, slept with her kitty on the bed, and informed her kitty every time she was getting up to do something or leaving the house. After Grammy passed in January, I got custody of "Kari" and I can honestly say I have never seen a more used/loved stuffed animal in my life. The family is amazed and grateful that Memorable Pets was there to help provide what became an important friend for Grammy's last year with us. I have since shared the website with others who have family members with similar circumstances.

Joanne didn’t smile much. In fact, I had not seen her really smile about anything at all. She spoke to others, but sparingly, even though it seemed like she wanted attention. Often, Joanne would call out for help to passing caregivers, but as they arrived at her side, she would not tell them what was wrong. I had had a lot of success with baby dolls in the past, especially with residents who called out for attention. One resident in particular had really taken to the baby dolls, and no longer cried out for assistance. Instead, she gave all of her energy and time to taking care of the baby dolls, which made her feel useful. We tried this with Joanne. “Can you take this baby back?” she asked, after holding it for only a minute, clearly bored with the baby. After looking into her history, we realized that Joanne had never had children. Instead, she had devoted her life to caring for dogs. When our shipment of pets arrived from Memorable Pets, I was ready to try something new with this resident. She sat, eyes closed, looking melancholy, and being assisted with eating by a resident caregiver. Even though her eyes were closed, Joanne opened her mouth, accepting each bite of food. “Joanne,” I said, touching her shoulder gently. She opened her eyes and saw me holding the sweet-looking stuffed dog. Her eyes opened wider and a smile—unlike one I had ever seen—moved across her face. She stared at the dog, the smile growing wider, as she reached for it. Rachael; dementia-by-day.com

Just wanted to show you how happy this dog made one of my residents! She started crying out and I looked over- she had dropped him, I picked him up and put him in her arms. This is her face! Rachael

My mother passed away this July, 2016. She had Alzheimer's and was 2 weeks shy of here 95th birthday. I had purchased the Calico Cat and the Golden Retriever for her; my sister got her another cat as well from your website. I have to tell you how important those pets were to Mom. She carried them everywhere in her wheelchair with her; she slept with them; she kissed and hugged and petted them! She called them her "kids." Staff made sure she had them with her and other patients thought she was so "cute" with them. Even on her death bed, she held them and kissed them. So we made sure that Mom would never be without her Calico cat; she was placed in the casket with Mom and will keep her company for an eternity. Thank you SO much for these wonderful pets. They are so realistic ; Mom believed them to be alive and this gave her both great comfort and constant companionship. She once told me how well behaved they were and how they were no trouble at all! And when they got dirty, staff just threw them into the washer and dryer... I was hesitant but it didn't hurt them and they came out wonderfully clean, soft and fluffy. I would be glad to visit with anyone who wants to know about the quality of these animals!!! From the bottom of my heart, I thank you! Donna

Better than we expected, so realistic!

The little dog was a hit with Peg however she at the last visit said I think she is dead. Who knows what she was thinking. Everyone I have shown the dog photos too have just loved it. Over sixty likes on Facebook.

I got the golden retriever for my dad who had gone to a memory care facility in March. He had always loved animals and a few months ago his little dog had passed away. This dog was very similar in size and color to his dog and I knew he would like holding it at night like he did his dog. He loved to hold it and talk to it. Towards the end, he had a lot of anxiety and the dog seemed to help calm him. He passed away two weeks ago but I hope holding his dog gave him some comfort.

My mother holds this puppy in her lap every day - she seems to love him very much.

My mother has been having trouble transitioning in to a nursing home and has become combative lately. "Doug" the baby doll was a gift for her birthday. He comforts her brings her a lot of happiness. She talks to and about her baby all day long now. It is so nice to see her calm and cooing to the baby.

My 95 year old mother has a cat, Miley, that she had to leave behind when she went to a rehabilitation center. She has dementia and I got her a substitute pet to go with her. She named him Miley as well! She takes him with her when she goes to rehab or meals and he sleeps with her. Miley provides comfort and is a source of joy for her. She lets others pet him, and when someone said how real he looked, she replied, "He is real!" I'm happy that my mother has her friend with her.

My mom was in late stages of her life here on earth. As a family we only wanted her to feel needed, loved and to hold on to her nurturing caring ways. Introducing her to her memorable pet brought not only comfort to her but to us as her family seeing what she did all her life take care of and love something unconditionally .

Grandpa loved it I would recommend this company to anyone

My granny has had dementia for 12 years. We had to place her in a nursing home last month. Grandpa and I visit her every evening. We bring her dog, Snowball, with us. Granny kept getting very upset when the three of us would go home. So I gave her the Memorable Pet Poodle and also named it Snowball. I told Granny that when Snowball (the real dog) went home each night to sleep with Grandpa the Snowball (the stuffed dog) would stay to sleep with her. She smiled back and kissed her new pet. Since then Granny's stress has greatly declined & she's okay when we leave.

Carla now known as "Lily Rose" is a beautiful baby girl who has brought joy into my life. Lily Rose is very easy to take care of, she is made from high quality vinyl from the top of her head, her body, right down to her feet and toes. Lily Rose is auto-manually correct just like a real baby girl is. Lily Rose wears new born diapers, new born baby clothes, socks and new born booties. My family glad I made the correct choice in choosing Carla know as "lily Rose"and they commented on how much Lily Rose resembles real-looking baby and the family loves the name Lily Rose that I gave my precious baby. I love that Lily Rose's weight is close to a real newborn baby's weight. I love giving her sponge baths and Lily Rose loves her sponge baths. Lily Rose loves her food and her baby bottle. Lily Rose has brought hours of joy and love into my life.

"Having a Mother with dementia has been to say the least very taxing. I decided to try a doll. The first doll was a little small so I ordered another one and Bettina has been wonderful. I decided to donate the first doll and get a larger doll. They come with a birth certificate so Mom can decide what she wants to name her baby. I love the first baby but I needed Mom to have one a little bigger. Next is a poodle pup. Stuffed of course. Thanks Bettina "

I bought 2 babies one for my 95 year old Mother. She loves it and she named her Mary after her Mother. The other baby I bought was a little bit smaller. I decided to donate to reflections, which is the facility. I bought a brush and bottles. She loves her and takes her every where with her. I'm glad I bought this for her.

We bought robotic therapy cat for my mother, who has dementia and is in a care home. Did not give it to her until this weekend as she and some other residents had the flu, so waited till she was better. She did smile and stroke it, great to see some interaction. Due to the reaction from other residents - great delight on there faces and cuddling the cat - we have decided to purchase another cat for the residential. Many thanks.

Trudy has altzimers, The family cat passed away last year. Not that she rembembers. I wanted to try and see if she would respond to a furry friend. To my delight she loved her emeditly. Petting her talking to her with a big smile and laughing,witch in turn made us smile and laugh. Made my Christmas even more special. Thanks

Thank you so much for expediting my order so I would have the reborn baby by October 13th for my daughters birthday. She loves her new baby!

I bought a Joy for all cat for my mother who, amongst many problems, suffers from vascular dementia due to a stroke. She loves the cat and will sit for 15-20 minutes at a time fussing it. We find the cat to be invaluable when she becomes agitated. It distracts her and calms her very quickly, and, her speech improves and, after a while, she puts the cat down and takes a nap.

I really enjoy seeing the pets and watching them move. My great grandchildren enjoy them also when they come to visit me.

Mom, age 95, started experiencing frequent anxiety issues due to her Alzheimer's. After consulting with her caregivers, I decided to try doll therapy. It was love at first sight. The baby never leaves her side. She sleeps with her, takes her to meals and activities, rocks her, sings to her and chats with her. I purchased extra clothes and she enjoys dressing her, too. She even tries to feed her, stuffing her little mouth with food, which I clean out each day! Best of all, in the two months since Baby Annie arrived, there has not been one episode of anxiety. Mom loves being a nurturing mom again and it has brought her peace and calm.

I bought this and one other cat for my mother who misses her pet cat terribly. Mom has Parkinson's and mild dementia. She loves these cats. She keeps them with her, grooms them, and sleeps with them holding on to them all night. They bring her so much comfort.

We had a Siamese cat many years ago. My wife loves stuffed animals snd asked me if I could get her a stuffed Siamese. The one at Memorable Pets was the highest quality one I could find and when it arrived it did not disappoint. We think it is fabulous that these pets are being used with dementia patients but they are also great for those who love stuffed pets and simply want the best.

It took some time...I just kept moving him ...into the picture..never ask about it never pointed him out....after a couple weeks....he was walking with us in her walker!!!!

Bettina, Mom will only carry and attach to the dog we order from you. She is in year 5 of the dementia floor and carries this dog all day everyday and is hysterical if separated from it. As you can imagine, it gets fed and messed up daily so we rotate them out of her arms to the bathroom for a few seconds to be "washed" and replaced instantly with a clean one and take the rest home to wash in the machine which when washed and dried they come out beautifully new. However there is a point which we need to reorder 5 more and I was worried you wouldn't have the same one so relieved to find it. Please don't discontinue without telling me as I will buy a lifetime supply. This dog is her only source of constant comfort for some reason and it has changed everyone's life...nurses, family, friends and most of all mom!! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for creating these pets. We went through a fair number of alternates, even a cat, before finding your site and her childhood family Cocker Spaniel. All the best, Susanne, (her daughter) ........................................................................................................................................................ Hi Bettina, I found more pictures over the span of a few years all with her dog. Dog attended art class and a visit with moms sister who she did not recognize any longer and in her room at Haro Park Care Center in Vancouver BC. One picture shows her with your Calico cat and of course the Cocker Spaniel dog! These were happier moments but she has not been able to speak in years and now no longer recognizes us but she still loves her dog. Comfort peace and loving kindness is our goal. Thanks, Susanne

Hi Bettina, I have to say a huge thank you for my Reborn doll. She was delivered to work and the whole office was over looking at her, some thought she was a real baby! She smells divine also. My daughter, Libby is going to love her, I will send you a pic after Christmas. Thanks again, Julie ........................................................................................................................................................ Hi Bettina, Libby was absolutely in love with her doll yesterday morning, she hasn't put her down! She took her to the shops today to buy new clothes from her Christmas money :) She has named her Lily. Thanks again for making her so quickly. Julie

Oh my goodness! She is so beautiful! I have tears! Our daughter, Lenora is so so happy! She named her Avery and absolutely loves her! Lenora is over the moon!! Thank you so much for your time and effort to get her out so quickly. I really appreciate it, and of course I will leave a fabulous review

Bettina, Thank you so much! My Mom loves her doll. She has named her Mary Louise. I gave it to her last Friday and I don't think she has put her down since! She holds her and pats her like a real baby. I haven't seen my Mom this happy in quite some time. Appreciate you guys so much! Angie

Jessica was shipped to my mother very quickly! I’m pleased with my experience.

I was in Stuart, Florida to be with my mother as our family celebrated her 96th birthday. I had brought her the rag doll cat as a gift and she absolutely loved it. As soon as she saw it she began kissing it, petting it, and cuddled with it in a way that was so very heartwarming. After I returned back to Denver I got a call from my sister who said we were having a problem with the cat. Apparently my mother was concerned that the cat was not eating! Such is the life of a 96 year old.

I bought this for a friend's mother. She was thrilled when she received it. My only disappointment with with my experience was that it took several days before it was shipped.

My wife loves the robotic cat. She keeps it with around the house and sleeps with it. She talks to it and grooms it. She is delighted with her new companion.

My wife loves the stuffed beagle. She takes it where ever she goes in the house. She treats it as if it were real.

I bought this doll for my patients with dementia. This doll does wonders for calming them down when they are agitated. The women I care for immediately hold and swaddle the baby as though it is real. It’s so nice to use something as a baby doll as therapy to calm a dementia patient vs medication.

My mum loves her Tabby cat to bits. She is housebound and has always had real cats so to have tabby who is so real living with her is a joy. This is one of the best companions she could have. Tabitha which is what she has named her cat now brings her so much joy its lovely to with mum interact with her.

Baby “James” is loved by person with a late stage Dementia.

In looking after my 95 yr old mother with dementia, the limitations in her speech and cognition, means I have had to learn how to communicate in a way she may understand. On reading that one emotion that remains in dementia, is the need to love,be loved and nurture. Since discovering this therapy doll, I have seen my mother more smiley and animated ,as the loving and nurturing is alive and well.

I bought the lifelike Bichon for my friend that has Alzhiemers. She has many days when she cries. I took the puppy to her and we named it "Jacks". She holds him often and the caregivers said she enjoys him. She loves how soft he is and told me she loves him. It is comforting to know that it's the little things that can make someones day.

Hi Mam, Just wow wow, thanks for the amazing gift for my child , I will not forget this in my lifetime. Praveen

I contacted Bettina to see if she had any babies ready to ship. She was able to push another order back (since it was not due for a couple of weeks) so I could buy that baby, which was ready. It shipped directly to my mother and within a couple of days she was holding Lisa2. Mom loves her new baby! Thank you, thank you, thank you...this is so precious. She has a little inexpensive doll now, but she's asking questions about it not moving too much...she thinks that her baby is sick. This new Baby Girl is so wonderful for her...shucks...I might want one when I see hers! You are the best to do this so quickly for us.

The mrmorable calico kitty was the best thing I could have ever gotten for my mom. It comforted her. She thought it was real a lot of the time and that was just fine. I made an incredible difference in the quality of her life. She had "kitty" for a year and a half before she died.

One day recently one of our new residents was agitated and upset. Our family care home’s supervisor and caregiver placed the robotic orange tabby (that we purchased through Memorable Pets) in her lap and she calmed immediately. She has been in love with this cat ever since. Thank you for all you do!

My mother-in-law has Alzheimer's and is a nursing home. I brought her the cat as a gift and she absolutely loved it. Evidently so did someone else as it went missing a few days later. I will be ordering another one soon.

My Beautiful Mum with her new baby She absolutely adores her. She has had her name changed to Rosemary though. As soon as mum saw her and realized it was hers she cried it was so Beautiful to see my mum so loving like this! Mum got diagnosed with Dementia earlier this year and she has been loving the Nursing Homes Baby's so much, that I decided she should have one of her own. She always wants to take the facilities babies to her room and settle them for a sleep so I knew she needed her own 24/7. The baby is absolutely perfect Thank you very much Amazing I highly recommend them for Dementia patients it brings out a beautiful side in them. .......................................................................................................................................................... Hi Bettina, Just a quick note Mum is ill at the moment she has been hospitalised for the last week and Dad asked her if she needs anything brought to the hospital for her and she asked for Rosemary her baby! So everyone says to us she doesn't remember anything new WELL IVE GOT NEWS FOR THEM! She remembers her beautiful baby and she's asking for her to be taken to the hospital! So it was absolutely beautiful when mum remembered Rosemary her new baby, now Mum is happy to be in Hospital with her baby. Her baby has settled her well even in a strange location as a hospital that she's never been to before. Kind Regards Mandy

Our Memory Care residents love the baby! They lit up and began taking care of it as soon as it arrived. We will definitely be ordering more!

Quick and courteous service.

I purchased Annie doll in January 2016 and waited until I thought timing seemed good. This video shows when I introduced the doll to my mom in June that year. They have interacted almost every day since that time. I wrap the doll in a swaddle just like a real baby and we take turns holding her. Taking care of children came naturally to Kathleen. She was the oldest of ten, had a sister named Annie, and had five children of her own. Kathleen moved to a Memory community several months ago. Some residents ask to hold the baby. Some give her kisses. Others think the doll looks so real. Somehow everyone is respectful and enjoy their smiles shared with my mom and her little baby Annie.

I bought this cat for my mother who has short term memory loss from her secondary progressive MS. She has tremors and spends time each night watching a movie. Holding the cat helps calm her. She absolutely loves it.

My extended family and I decided to adopt and deliver 16 Believable Babies and 12 Memorable Pets (with pet shop accessories), as our family Christmas giving project to our local Alzheimer's and Memory Care facility. It was the best Christmas ever! I raised about $2000 for the adoptions and I worked with Bettina at Memorable Pets to make it a reality. In the past we had given money to organizations, but this idea was one we could really participate in and show the love of Christ and Christmas. I was so pleased, I created a website called "Betty's Babies" in memory of my grandmother who had Alzheimer's disease. Her name was Betty and she went to heaven in 2010. I know she would be very happy to see what we have accomplished! Also, our inspiring delivery video is on You Tube at (cut and paste into browser): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XMMOCG8N3cY&t=41s . We will continue on with many more adoption deliveries for those with dementia. To visit our site go to : www.bettysbabiesforalz.com . We are in process of becoming a 501c3 organization.

I'm so very excited to receive Paisley. She will be my first reborn doll .. I really wish I had known about this before, my grandmother died with Alzheimer's 2 years ago and I was her caretaker. currently my stepdad has Alzheimer's and my mom is his caretaker...she's really having a hard time. Anyway I just wanted to say thank you for all y'all do and I'm so excited to see my Paisley ❤️ Tara .......................................................................................................................................................... I just wanted to thank you for Paisley. I love her so much. She is amazing! I love dressing her. I love her, her little face looks so inquisitive and so happy. Happy New Year and thank you so much. Tara

It was Christmas Eve 2016, and I was in desperate need of a Madame Alexander "Babble Baby" for my daughter. Our family was planning to go on a trip and that was going to be it... no presents, just our wonderful trip. Unfortunately, we had to cancel the trip at the last minute because of some extended family issues. My husband and I had to pull together Christmas for our two children at the last minute. I had searched everywhere for this doll with no luck... everyone was out of them. I reached out to Bettina at Believable Babies because she was located in our state of Kentucky. She happen to have one left and agreed to sell it to me! My husband and I drove to meet Bettina at a restaurant, where she and her family were having dinner. She was going to bring the doll and we would bring the cash. It took us about 45 minutes to get to the restaurant. We met, made the exchange and wished each other a Merry Christmas! My daughter was so happy the next morning. She had been wanting this kind of baby doll for a long time. I am grateful for Bettina going out of her way on Christmas eve to help us. Kristen

"I just received the baby...She is amazing! We loved! Thank you so much!" Etieli

Thank you so much! The baby doll "Beth" was even more than I ever expected, and my 89 year old mother immediately fell in love with her! I cannot thank enough. I will continue to refer you to everyone, as I work at a hospital on a neurological floor, and my mother is in a dementia unit. Sincerely, Beth (the real daughter)
