So I’m sitting on a bench, minding my own business, trying to decompress after a long week. Out of nowhere, this scruffy little dog (definitely not lost, just vibing) trots over like he owns the place. No hesitation—he plops his head on my knee and gives me that look, you know, the one that says, 'You look like you need a friend.' I’m not even a dog person, but next thing I know, I’m scratching his ears and telling him about my day like he’s my therapist. He just sits there, tail wagging, soaking up all my existential dread. Five minutes later, he’s off to the next human, leaving me weirdly lighter. Honestly, pets have this sixth sense for when you need a pick-me-up. Shoutout to all the random animals out there doing emotional labor for free. Y’all are the real MVPs. #PetTherapy #AnimalsOfTheWorld #MentalHealth #Pets #Cats
