Residents at Tradition Independent and Assisted Living in Brooklyn Park, Minnesota received a great gift from the city of Brooklyn Park. Tradition, along with a few other senior living communities in the area, received animatronic pets to keep the residents company without the responsibility. Tradition receives two cats and two dogs and they ve been a big hit so far.
The city of Brooklyn Park purchased these animatronic pets with CARES Act money they received, according to WCCO. The pets meow/bark, purr, blink and move. And they respond to things going on around them.
