Animals bring love and companionship in a way people just can't. Animals don't judge you, don't yell, don't manipulate or put demands on you. All they want is to love and be loved. I have many medical issues as well as severe anxiety, and it really does help having animals around. My dogs seem to know when I am feeling extra bad/depressed and when that happens they don't leave my side. :)<br><b>References : </b><br> Well, all I know is that my 2 dogs, 1 bird and a guinea pig all make my life a happier one.
