I am very much an animal lover. My wife is too. We have 3 cats. We refer to one of them as "Daddy's boy" because over the years he has drawn closer to me. When I am feeling really down he can sense it and tries to "console" me. One time when I was going through my nervous breakdown and crying uncontrollably he was all in my face trying to love on me & snuggle with me. All day Friday & into Saturday I was not having a good day. He would not leave my side. If I went up front he would be with me. If I went to the bedroom he was there. Does anyone else's pets do this? He is very much my comfort/security pet.
