Meet Céline, a founding member of the association.
Why animals, Céline?
- I’ve always grown up with animals—they’re my confidants and never judge me.
- As an educator, I combine my passion with my profession.
- For the joy and sense of connection that animals provide.
- For people who have fears, anxieties, or phobias, like my partner.
- It helps alleviate stress and depression.
- For people with high blood pressure.
- For people facing social, physical, or mental challenges.
- To help alleviate chronic illnesses.

Any final thoughts?
Pet, talk to, and observe the animal, and you’ll see the positive impact it has on you.
Animals protect you, make you stronger, more open-minded, and more in tune with yourself, and they help develop your sensitivity.
They energize daily care and support the healing process.
Animals are wonderful therapists.
Thanks for this little discovery, and see you soon at the Gîte de la Draye...
