It's nice having a companion who's always happy to see you and hang out with you, no matter what. If I'm having a bad day or I'm stressed out, they always seem to cheer me up or calm me down. I've got a cat. I love him to death. Eventually, I want to get a dog as well when I move to a house with a bigger yard. I have always loved animals.
