I am still very lonely, but I think that it would be much worse if I didn't have my dog. It might sound silly but I think that he knows when I am feeling sad, lonely or depressed. When I feel like that he just comes and sits next to me or follows me around. I wonder, how do they know?

its the same 4 me. i think id curl up & die on those really bad nites if i didnt have my animals
animals can just feel things. theyre special like dat
thank gawd LoL

Exactly!!! I used to have a turtle and he was my best friend. He'd always come in to my room whenever I feel really sad and lonely and I'd make him sit on my lap I look in his eyes and it felt like he understood me and knew me. My buddy..he's been given away so I miss him now..

Pets are so wonderful to have around. So soothing to pet and cuddle when you need that warmth. I miss having pets around, and my sisters cat, well, it's not my cat. I had lost my most treasured dog, and can not even think of replacing her. She was my baby. I do get some comfort out of other peoples pets, so I guess there is a balance there. Enjoy your pets, they are one of the greatest gifts we can have.

I've grown up with two dogs in the family, and I'm very glad for that. One of them had to be put to sleep a few years ago, and the other earlier this year sadly. They're more than just animals. They're the most loyal friends you'll ever have, because they're always there. Care for them and they'll care for you.

Now I've been trying to persuade my family to get cats, but my father is too stubborn. There are hundreds of abandoned cats who needs a home, and I would really really like to help out, and earn a new animal friend or two in the process. When I move out I will definitely go for it ^^

I wanna get a cat too. But I can't get it now, and I'm also thinking of getting one when I live on my own in the future. I love cats! And turtles. These adorable animals seem to understand us more than we think they do, sometimes.

I always wanted a turtle when I was a kid. Probably because I was such a huge fan of Tennage Mutant Ninja Turtles! My parents refused of course, probably for the better, hehe ^^

Still they're cool animals, ninjas or not

Lol! Mine was a ninja, alright! Cos he had a really tight grip if I were to carry him around (probably scared I'd drop him but after awhile he loosens it knowing it's me) and he kicks really strong for a small little animal. Now I miss my little turt.

now im sad LoL

now im sad LoL
