How many of us MSers have pets that help them cope?
I have a German Shepherd and a sweet tuxedo cat. The shepherd makes me feel safe when alone and the cat lets me cuddle her when I am having a bad day. It helps.

I had a cat (lost her last October) I got her when I was coming out of a relapse but I was still very weak. She used to lay in bed with me with her head in my arms ❤️ she really did give me comfort. Over the years she provided so much comfort to me and when I had children she was so lovely. I admit, I sobbed when we had to put her to sleep
@Lizzydripping I'm so sorry for your loss. Its the worse and saddest feeling.
