A Midnight Twist

I love my fur babies.  If one of them falls asleep on me  if Im sitting in the chair  I will  stay in that chair frozen until they get up.  I think thats the law; isnt it? The cats or the dog,  I find myself just  petting then,  Calming   my anxiety and  reducing my stress level.   There is so much information out there  about the health benefits of having a companion animal, dog or cat ( I am sure this also works for bunnies and guinea pigs).  Dogs and I think, cats as well understand  when we are sad, when we have  had  hard day and  many  dogs will lick the tears off your face as you cry.  I like to tell people that if I was on the titanic with my husband and dog and I  was  on a lifeboat with  one seat left for either the dog or the husband, the husband be swimming.  I also tell all my clients that dogs are the best therapists you can have  ( I can put myself out of business)   Several studies  mention dogs and cats  help lower your blood pressure; lessen the chance of heart attacks, help with structure, help with depression,  The dogs and cats I have had in my life have had a special place in my heart. They have taught me about love and loyalty and play!  So this morning the twist of gratitude  is for all the animals in my heart;  past and present.  A twist for Harlee and friends!
