Mini Horse Visit Brings Tears Of Joy To Nursing Home Residents

I'm not crying, you're crying!

Residents at Rosevale Care Home in York, United Kingdom, were visited by the Monet the therapy horse, according to the BBC.

Monet is the biggest animal that's visited the nursing home through its pet therapy program. The idea is that animal therapy would bring back some memories of past pets from residents with dementia.

Most of the time the residents spend their days inside their homes, however, the visit from Monet brought people together, said Sarah Fearn from the nursing home.

"The atmosphere was amazing and the residents were so involved and happy," said Fern, in a BBC interview. "Chatting to each other and big smiles all around. This is so lovely to watch in these uncertain times."

Money quite literally overjoyed some residents bringing tears to their eyes!
