    Very true ! I could relate with every point. We feel valued and loved and they make us feel like coming home everyday. The years I spent with my cat were undoubtedly the happiest days of my life. And whoever says cats don't love us back has never had one.

    These cats are all that cuz you actually pet them, love them, enjoy them, pamper them, play with them , etc. I know an have known lots who just own an feed their cats, give them a pet every once in awhile an thats it. Then they wonder why their cats are so skittish, lazy, unfriendly, etc. These cats are obviously very much loved!!!

    That was very touching. I had severe depression few months ago and was so apart from the world. Didn't speak to my family or interact with anyone outside my home. But I always got up of my bed to feed my cat and make sure he is OK. He was the only reason I didn't commit suicide at that point of my life and still.

    My dad getting my cat for my birthday really bonded us. My dad and I always had problems, (mostly because my parents are divorced) for years I didn't want to talk to him or even go to his house when he was supposed to have me over. We would always get into arguments over the stupidest things and he would always try to fix it by buying me things when I all I wanted was for him to fix himself . Last summer I wanted one thing for my birthday and all it was, was a cat. I have been asking him and My mom for years and he finally agreed. I found this white flame point kitten that was cutest for adoption and I immediately emailed them, after a few days we got him and ever since my dad and I have been best friends. For a while my dad didn't like the kitten and said he only got it for me but now he says the cat is like his baby and he loves him so much! Every time I come over my dad and I will play with the cat and have lots of fun. He helps my dad when I'm not there (since he's alone at home he has my cat for company) and helps me when my dad is at the gym, sleeping or at work. Every morning at my dads is just loads of cuddles and affection from my cat and it's amazing. Cats can really help if your having trouble with family or if your depressed, and I know that cause it helped my dad and I.

    This is sooo true. My cat actually saved my life when I was about to commit suicide due to clinical depression. No wonder she's queen of my house plus garden plus me, now. Cats are psychic animals and able to detect anything that's wrong with you and they find the exact way to distract you from your worries by just being there and showing affection and by being open to cuddling and being close and healing you at the same time. And, of course, they are entitled to being given the same attention and affection to THEM :) I wouldn't with to give up on my kitty 🐱

  • @tomcat1517
    @tomcat1517 8 лет назад +10

    My first cat taught me that cats have great value, even if they are not your fav pets; as a kid, I wanted dogs and didn't like cats.. But with time, this master in paws made me realize how precious a cat is.. He showed me his abilities, talents, his sense of friendship and his superpowers (cause a cat moving u from your bed and depression definitely has superpowers). And he was so patient, cause at first I was a jerk with him.
    After him, only cats. They are magical! And people appreciating them are magical too.

  • @svenable567

    Fantastic video. I used to have a mantra: go to work; make money; buy cat food...I retired earlier this year after 41 years, same company with a buy out. I've never been happier to spend so much time with my cats, home and just live life! Your video kind of speaks to all of that to me.

    When my dog died (whom was like a sister to me, given how shitty most humans in my family are), I was 2 years into depression already, and if not for the kitten my mom had gotten me months before, I would have killed myself... but I just couldn't leave this little baby alone when I basically raised her so... Now Indy is 7 years old, and still a great source of comfort... and I'm still alive, so hey, victory.
    Animals are the best thing ever. Even if you give up on yourself, don't give up on them =)

    I love this video, and it is so true. I've struggled with depression and anxiety for over 25 years, and have always had cats around. My cat Brenda died in May 2017, and for months I felt empty and unable to cope. In the summer this year I adopted 2 new cats, and I feel 100% happier again. I feel like my life has meaning and purpose, and it's helped my ability to interact with people as well. I still miss Brenda all the time, but having the 2 new cats has really helped me to move forward and feel more positive about life.

    I have this wonderful cat that's so adorable. She's fat and squishy and i just love her to pieces. She never annoys me. Oh my gosh this cat is like a mental break from everything. She behaves so similar to a cat i used to have when I was a teen, so much that it feels like she has been reincarnated. I forgot that owning a cat feels this nice.

    Wonderful video, and so true! Sometimes I feel anxiety and my big rescued tom cat cuddles on my shoulder with his deep purring chest against my ear, as he nuzzles my hair like a little kitten. Soon the tightness inside me just melts away and I'm relaxed again. Cats are a blessing!

    I have depression and my cat helps my depression. I'm more happy than I was when I didn't have a cat. The kitten I got last October grew up to be a very floppy lap cat which fits my personality. October is next month so it'll be his birthday he will be 1 year old.

    I had my cat Chooch for six years (a senior me and my family adopted). He recently passed away so we cremated him. I didn't realize it at the time, but he knew his time was up and spent it cuddling up to me on my bed as well as being in my son's room. He actually died by my side. When we lost him, a part us died with him.

    As someone struggling with aspergers, trust issues, loneliness, depression, and figuring out who I am, this is why I picked up my little black furbaby from 6 weeks old. He's almost a year now. He always comes running to the door when I come home from work. I pick him up and baby him. He always has to be around me, and that's exactly what I wanted. Someone to be there with and for me. I no longer trust any human to get that close to my heart.

    So odd this is in my recommends today. Just today I told my therapist whom I've been treating with for almost 4 years that I smell my oldest cat's head (21) everyday. It smells like sunshine and birthday cake. Not literal birthday cake per se but that perfect cake from memories of when I had good occasions. Pure memories of laughter and joy. I smell his little furry head every morning and night and sunshine and birthday cake keep me going til the next day.
    I have traditions with my other cats but my oldest is special. We survived a tragedy together. He is my tuxie angel.
