Having a pet is giving your child a friend who
loves them unconditionally, a friend who silently listens to all of their
troubles, a friend who cuddles next to them when they are sick, and a friend
that does not care in the least what they look like.
I know firsthand how important our furry family members are. I have 4 Pugs, 1 Australian Shepherd/Pointer, and 2 cats. I am disabled, I suffer from Chronic Pain and other ailments and spend 95% of my time at home (75% percent of this time I am alone with just my furry family members). I don't know what I would do without their companionship. They give me unconditional love, they are my best friends (sadly, most of my human friends have hit the road)! Unfortunately, people do not understand disabilities, especially the ones that are not immediately visable to the naked eye. I wouldn't trade my Furry Family Members for Anything! They are my reason to go on, they give me something to look forward to!
