I told a good friend who loves cats like me (in case Jonathan's cat is reading this) about the parrot therapy. We had a good laugh & thought the therapist should train the parrot to regularly say phrases throoughout the session like "oh my, you don't say?" & "interesting - can you tell me more" & best of all, say in the manner that Sybil Fawltey did in Fawltey Towers "oohh, I knooow, I know". I'm sure if it didn't make the patient feel better, at least the laughter that resulted would be somewhat curative.
