@Faintdreams He's Paro! The inventor used he pronouns, at least. He's designed to calm patients with anxiety, pain, or dementia, as well as teach autistic children social skills. The idea is he's to offer the benefits of animal therapy without the ethical and logistical problems of pets (for example, people are allergic to dander, food and bathroom for the animal, what if a patient freaks out and hurts the animal, etc)
It's kind of Philip K Dick, but so cute you dont care.
