Tombot Robotic Companion Animals Tombot robotic animals are designed to accurately emulate live animal appearance and behaviors, providing ongoing fun, happiness, and emotional support.
Our Mission To improve the quality of life of seniors with dementia for whom it is no longer practical or desirable to care for a live animal companion. Inspired by our founder's mother who was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s in 2011, Tombot robotic animals are designed to accurately emulate live animal appearance and behaviors, providing ongoing fun, happiness, and emotional support.
Family Members Adorable and realistic puppy design provides the senior with dementia with a sense of responsibility, companionship, and value. Caregivers Tombot’s robotic puppy is an invaluable tool for increasing social engagement in the senior, and for redirecting “challenging" behaviors. Doctors Studies show that robotic animal companions can reduce the need for psychotropic & antipsychotic meds by reducing dementia-related behaviors.
Give Tombot As A Gift Most seniors with dementia no longer have the ability to purchase items for themselves. You can gift a Tombot robotic companion animal to your loved one knowing that it is scientifically designed to improve and potentially extend their quality of life.
Our Story Nancy Stevens, mother of Tombot CEO and Co-Founder Tom Stevens, was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s in 2011. As Tom assumed control of Nancy’s day-to-day affairs, Nancy and Tom had several really bad days By far the worst was when Tom realized he had to take away Nancy’s dog Golden Bear. Golden Bear was a two-year-old Golden Doodle; a beautiful dog with ordinarily a very sweet disposition. As Nancy’s disease state worsened and her universe of friends and activities shrank, Golden Bear become an increasingly important companion for coping with her loss of independence. However, still resentful of needing live-in assistance, Nancy managed to train Golden Bear to be aggressive towards her caregiver. Fortunately, Tom had close family friends that could provide a new home for Golden Bear. But losing Golden Bear was devastating to Nancy. www.tombot.com
