There are lots of reasons to be thankful for our pets. Here are a smattering of thoughts:
- Pets are excellent listeners
- They love to go everywhere with you (ok, dogs like to go everywhere with you)
- They don't complain (well, maybe a little grumble, but they get over it amazingly quickly)
- Pets are always happy to see you
- They like exercise
- They actually don't mind being around you all the time
- Scientific stats show that petting pets lowers your blood pressure
- They always want to have fun, even when no one else wants to
- Pets are warm and good for snuggling (well, not fish or frogs or turtles and the like)
- Pets are entertaining (better than TV!)
I'm mostly with you on this one, except for a couple of things different I have noticed about my pet human:
ReplyDelete1) He doesn't exercize much. Mostly he sits in front of a computer screen or a TV (same thing, really).
2) He can be annoying occasionally, which isn't great on the ol' blood pressure.
Yet still you wish to be with him....
