You have an excellent point. The comfort of an animal can help a lot. It can give a sense of almost sympathy. My, very large, white and black Maine Coon cat snuggles with me at night. I've noticed the days/nights when I in more pain he sticks closer to me. And that can be a huge comfort! Gives you a sense of support too. Although I have found cleaning the cat box impossible some days.......lol
