One Student’s Purrfect Path to Graduation
At Nipissing University, students often talk about finding their place. For Breanna Mills, a History student graduating this spring, that sense of belonging came from community, hands-on experience, and a small but constant presence by her side in the form of a feline. Her name is April, an orange tabby cat with a keen sense of awareness. April isn’t just a companion to Mills; she’s a trained service animal who has been part of nearly every step of her university journey.
