Pets are awsome, aren't they?
My horses did the same thing for me.

Pets are cool. I glad you have one to cheer you up.

pets are awesome just ask my five cats and my dog

I love my cats

pets are great. My cat was my best friend for the longest time. She died nearly 4 years ago this month. I had her while I grew up and am unable to have one where I currently live and that makes me very sad. I want a nice kitty to cuddle since my hubby is away.

Awww he sounds lovely KuromiAi
My cat makes me laugh all teh time with the silly espressions on his face, the way he 'merbs' at me and teh way he's alwasy at the door when I come home. He does the same to my fella, he's lovely.
My gerbils make me laugh so much too, they're also doing silly things like using their wheel to poo in and stuff lol

My animals are the only thing I have that is consistantly full of love and company...they really do need me too...which really helps me tremendously....They have kept me alive more than once...Thank you for your sharing your experience...

i love my little dog. she always sleeps in my bed. when i cry she comes over and wants to hop in my lap. then she licks and kisses me all over....so cute. she is the best.

I like animals better than people any day!!! I spend time in the rabbitry when I am down and the rabbits always cheer me up. My dogs too!
God Bless Pets....Animals!

I'm glad I'm not the only one who prefers animals to people! My dog means the world to me - although he shivers and looks worried when I cry, he still lets me cry in his fur and never expects anything other than his dinner and custody of my socks in return. Pets really are awesome!

there is something amazing about pets, we have a dog and a bird, our dog is always there for me when i am down or when i am having a bad night she is with me, i talk to her for hours, i cry on her and she never pulls away she just snuggles closer.

I am right there with you! I have a huge black cat who I named D'Artagnan who I saved from the needle. He is neurotic like me, when he's stressed he licks the phone book... He lays on whatever part of my body that hurts (which is sort of uncomfortable, he weights 20 pounds...not fat, though!) He follows me around everywhere I go, he lays his head on my pillow and puts his paw on me...we survived Hurricane Charley with me in the bathtub when we lived in Florida! He rocks; he is my best friend (which many people think is strange, but I don't care). I am terrified of losing him, and I'm crazy about taking him to the vet every few months just to have him looked at. You'd think he'd hate me for that! Oh well, I think pets are the best therapy!

Three cheers for pets!

My two rabbits can always cheer me up when I am upset, and taking care of them: feeding, cleaning their cages, keeping them company, etc. helps give purpose to my day, even if I don't feel like doing anything else.

I truly think that owning a pets is one of the healthiest and most therapeutic things one can do.

I really want to get one of these:

I'm all about cats and those cats can grow to be 20 pounds! And they meow like kittens. :)

I really think the most unconditional love comes from animals.
