Dear Savvy Senior, I recently read an article about robotic pets being a great substitute for pet-loving seniors who canât have or take care of a pet any longer. What do you think of this? My mother, who has some dementia, is living in an assisted living facility that doesnât allow pets. And because of COVID, we havenât been allowed inside the facility to visit her since March. Iâve been thinking about getting her a robot pet to help cheer her up but would like to know if they are worth buying, and if so, where can I go to find one.
