Do you think a Furby would be entertaining - or just frustrating - to a senior living in a nursing home?

i think purple would be to loud a color maybe a different color would be better. like white, yellow, or something not so loud.

Very entertaining to a senior living home because I think the women will think its cute. Most men will probably not care for it.

Well my daughter's Grandma who is in her 50's talks to Furby when ever my little girl has it out and I often will ask Grandma " you do know it's not alive right?" lol I think it might be a good choice!

Yes, but it does not take to long. Make a cup of tea, put on some relaxing music and make sure there are no animals to get in your face and it will be fun!

only if they walk on the remote. make sure it is out of the way of the pets

Sure, they are cute as can be. I bought three this Christmas season, one of the girls is 4 years old. I know her 7 year old sister will probably help her. You actually download an app that interacts with the Furby. Funny to watch! Hope I helped.

I got this for my son who was turning 7 because he thought it would be so much fun. I would say he played with it for about 25 minutes before he got bored. I think younger kids would like the singing and dancing and having the furby dance to music. If you get the app for your phone then you might need to help him/her with feeding the furby. I just don't think it was worth the money for my son so I would think 4 or 5 would be a good age.

I guess so, as long as it's up on a piece of furniture where he can't get at it. The music and lights are nice. The stuffed animal itself is not really for playing with. Hope that helps!

I would definitely say so. They love these things and it's a perfect side to keep them entertained.

I tried it and my little girl learned to whine and howl instead of barking...you can try it and send back if it doesn't work...mostly for indoors

It is understood that a furby will learn to speak any language as long as you speak that language to it on a regular basis. That's the way I understood it. They start out speaking furbish, but can learn what they are spoken to.

No. They all have one of several personalities dependent upon how you treat them. And yes, if you change how you treat your furby, the personality changes as well

No, the regular furbys work off of andriods too. We just got a Furby boom and our kindle had an app for it. It's so fun!

I think it would very much depend on the dog bed. My senior likes to sleep on a very soft, scrunchable bed so it would not work well. If your dog has a fairly flat, firm bed, I think it would work.

Well, id like to say they are but! Furby boom is the new furby way more to do with them. I got my son two of them which he loves.

My pets are in house and my home is kept at 80*. They appear very content and happy. They are kept in the crate when I am gone. They play all the time and sometimes go in the crate to rest. Hope this helps

I think that's a wonderful idea for an elderly cat! Our feral outdoor cat loves his. If we ever succeed in bringing him inside, the house will come, too.

Yes , after some searching the internet I found it at a fur real friends site . Good luck with yours , I could never get mine to work properly . I think who ever had it originally really treated it pretty badly .

I have three senior dogs. My unit goes 24/7 at one of the higher settings, but to tell you what settings to use, I suggest you tinker around with what will work for your "fur babies." You did not say how many, or if they were dogs or cats. That might make a difference. I do like my unit. Follow the directions on cleaning and I think you will be happy with your gift.Joan
