Even in the midst of a depressive episode, I can appreciate the love of a cat who wants to be near me no matter what.
My boy Snowball does the same for me...And he sleeps with me too..Hes my worldI go to sleep with arnold, wake up with arnold....we have a special connection. He calms me and reassures me all will be well. Being with him reminds me of the truly important things in life and to keep the rest in perspective.

That is the truth! We’re so lucky to have a relationship with them...I feel blessed to have Jemima and Lucca; they are wonderful kittens !They just have a way of letting us know they care, a look or cuddle just when you need it.
Being someone who has been fighting years of on and off depression, I can fully understand what you mean, especially with the part where our cat/s (or other animals), seem to know when we are really in our deepest abyss. Our cats have a way of letting us know that things will be alright, even without having the capability to speak human language. It is truly amazing just thinking how deep that bond is, which cannot be explained and understood especially by those who have not given the privilege to love and be loved by an animal.Even in the midst of a depressive episode, I can appreciate the love of a cat who wants to be near me no matter what.View attachment 310612

Chilli is beautiful!So precious. Animals are so amazing in that way. I can say with confidence I wouldn’t be alive today if it weren’t for the dogs and cats who have helped me through my bouts of depression over the years.
This past year has been very rough for me, but Chilli has absolutely been my rock through it all. I’m so thankful for her. She is one of the most steadfast, patient, and compassionate friends I’ve ever had.
