It's incredible how much comfort, companionship, and emotional support our feline friends can provide, especially when living alone. Their presence can make a world of difference in our daily lives, offering a sense of routine, purpose, and a constant source of unconditional love. Here's to the special bond you share with your cats and the positive impact they have on your well-being. 🐱💖🏡

I recently got a feral kitten. It just showed up so I made sure it had food on the porch. After about a week of looking in thru the my glass screen I left the screen and door slightly open and it walked in. It stays in mostly now but still hisses at me. I just leave him alone. But last night while I was asleep, it jumped up on the bed and slept right next to me. My tuxedo cat has taken it under his wing and now where Milo goes little Silas is right behind.

[@martymartin2894]

Same with me two ferral kittens siblings, I have always fed their mother but she never became really tame she would enter my house for food but always watch the open door and go out if u were between her and the door, but her 2 kittens I gradually tamed and now they are at my side all the time. But I give them the freedom to go outside whenever they want but lately in the bad weather they don't want to lol.

Animals, especially cats, have an uncanny ability to sense our emotions and provide comfort when we most need it.

[@Bogie3855]

My wife and I have been together for over 50yrs and have had many cats over that time. We currently have a Maine Coon male we were fortunate enough to get from the SPCA. He is a wonderful companion and smart as a whip, able to easily communicate what he wants us to do for him including what kind of catfood he wants as in wet, kibble or treat and if one of his litter boxes needs attention. Then there is the lack of mice anymore. He is a skilled hunter but all and all he is just such a special boy to us. He is such a mommas boy too and will often follow my wife around and make sure he gets groomed or pets. So precious. We feel so fortunate to have him with us.

[@MidytheimpGaming]

My cat, a former stray, is never more than a few feet away from me. He sleeps with me every night, purrs every time I look at him or he sees me, and never wakes me up for any reason. Not even for food/water. He waits until I wake up before he quietly meows at me and looks at his dishes as if to ask for what he needs from me. He even sleeps in my spot when I get up to leave my room or just sit on my futon. He’s a sweetheart. ❤️

[@ModernMan12]

I have a very similar situation with a cat I got who was 10 years old and was at a shelter. I know he had one other home but probably more, and it was stressful for him then. Now he just lives with me and my brother, and he’s having an extremely good time of it

[@lovelovelovehappyhappyhappy]

❤❤❤

[@bobdobalina838]

I can corroborate all of this. I grew up without a mother and I would call my Kitty friend every night and he would come and purr me to sleep. Probably saved my sanity for later life. Words cannot describe the debt of gratitude that I owe to these little creatures. Now, I'm getting older and alone. But my little Kitty is my best friend, confidant and little buddy in this world, warding away depression loneliness and dark thoughts. Cats should be prescribed to people with all manner of illnesses and troubles, from depression to loneliness

[@HavianEla]

That’s actually a brilliant idea! I’m really sympathetically sorry to hear about your lack of mom in your life, but I’m incredibly grateful you had some feline friends to be there for you! Cats truly are the most wonderful creatures, aren’t they?

When my brother was born, then when i had a baby, & now with my granddaughter, I've seen cats be absolutely wonderful to babies. Also, when i lost a baby & was inconsolable, it was my cat who helped me get through the torturous nights. Curling up on my lap & letting me cry over her until her fur was wet & filling my arms that literally ached from wanting to hold my baby. She helped in a way no human could have.

That’s a beautiful, if sad, story. Your cat clearly knew something was up and did its very best until you could cope. Something similar happened to my father when he had cancer. Then when he died, the neighbour’s cat just left, seldom to return. He just knew he was needed.

Having cats as companions through the years has helped me enormously. Cats are very loving but unfortunately not everyone gets that about them. They want them to act like a dog. Yes, really??

I'm truly sorry to hear that you were unwell recently. It's heartwarming how intuitive and attuned cats can be to our emotions and physical well-being. When we're unwell, they often sense it and offer their quiet, comforting presence, foregoing even their usual habits and routines. It sounds like your cat genuinely cares for you and wanted to ensure you felt his support during your time of illness.

Sorry for your loss💛. A cats love is so special even tho they cannot last forever it is worth it for however long.

[@UnswimmingFishYT]

It goes a little further than that. Purring is also a confirmed pain relief. They purr sometimes if they get hurt, because it affects them, but if you touch a purring cat, it can reduce pain sometimes. I used to use my cat as a headache reliver, and he was very effective at it. To the cat, it's almost the same as just normal snuggles, but in every case, my headaches faded much faster when I was purred on. They're pest control, stress and pain relief, and occasionally entertainment all in one place. To take it a step further, pets in general can have a minor pain relief effect. It's been proven that the chemical brain effects related to loving a pet can reduce pain using your own body, so the purring just stacks with that. Hugging a purring kitty you like is the best non-medicinal pain reliever available, with no side effects.

My cat came with a lot of baggage unfortunately but I know she loves me, she's not a lap cat tho she'll cuddle next to me on the bed lay on my shoes and stuff and always lick my face, I respect her choices and leave her to her own self...when she's ready to interact with me I'm hers....she looks to play with me in the evening and it's always a joy to watch her enjoying herself too. Just love her.❤❤❤😊

I prefer my cat's company to most people that I know-by far!

[@curagaifrit6829]

All my cats have meowed at each other from time to time.

We have just had an influx of very large spiders in UK houses, and my darling Fluffy is yet to catch one!!! she did try very hard, but he managed to evade her on several occasions!! Jar and card do the trick and Mr Spider is evicted to the great outdoors probably to re-enter at some stage in the week!!! Its probably one and the same spider!! Fluffy is a big gentle giant of a kitty, shes a house cat so doesn't do much predation, shes probably out of practice bless her!!

My boy is out of treats for the first time for five days a friend went shopping for me and only got about half of my list .. his treats were on tgat list.. anyway he seems puzzled. But hes not been begging for them

[@veronicaparis5002]

My Tigger would freak out b all over the treats

Yes, it depends on the frequency however. Astrologer, Susan Miller, recently suffered a bone fracture when a doctor used a tuning fork on an Injury. Some frequencies aren’t good for healing. A Cat’s Purr could be very calming for people & lower their Blood pressure.

[@lisanidog8178]

Oh! Then my two were giving me cat kisses with their eyes. I thought they just got drowsy. Sometimes both would just stare at me as if I’m going to say something profound. I say what! And they come up for a scratch or be on and next to me in their usual shifts. Purring of course.

[@Feline_Fanatics]

That's absolutely adorable! 🥰 Cats indeed have their own special way of communicating affection, and those slow blinks or "cat kisses" are a clear sign of trust and love. 🐾❤️🐱

[@lisanidog8178]

@@Feline_Fanatics good to know they were kissing me with their eyes not falling asleep. 😆 As I write I got my girl, Money, on my lap. Her brother is probably in the cupboard condo for a snooze.

[@lisanidog8178]

My boy always brings me his toys for a game of fetch. His sister doesn’t. She bats sound her foil balls and goes to sleep after. She knows what fetch is and has done it but it’s her brother’s specialty. My boy brings either his foil ball or cardboard curls. I have a little box with all of them and my two dip into it. And they have bigger boxes and a couple brown paper bags they like to play in as well as their open cat carrier. They’re indoor so nothing live as a present.

[@Feline_Fanatics]

It sounds like you've got two kitties with distinct personalities and play preferences! It's adorable how your boy enjoys fetching and how his sister has her own unique way of playing. It's wonderful that you've created such an engaging environment for them with boxes, paper bags, and an assortment of toys. Keeping indoor cats entertained is so important, and you seem to be doing a fantastic job! 🐾🎾📦🐱

[@lisanidog8178]

@@Feline_Fanatics my boy Manny2 has a record of five hours straight with fetch. My girl bats around her balls like a soccer player. Yup they’re entertained. And they get good night kisses, afternoon and a morning kiss. I tell them every day I love them. Thanks! I try to do well by them.

I generally avoid pets, but cats are something else.

Said it before. Cats are SO COOL!!!!!🥰🤗🐈🐈 Two own me. I'd be a lost soul without Big Tiger and Little Miss Kairi. They ARE MY children. Despite having a grown daughter.

I'm currently going through a divorce and suddenly my kitty is snuggling up with me every night, so I can absolutely attest to number 4.

[@onesandzeroes]

I especially appreciate *benefit* no. 2. It's really useful and beneficial to be gifted a dead mouse now and then.

[@greenkeeperc769]

Dude number 4 my cat knows im fucked up he gives me extra love if you have ptsd a cat will help you i promise ❤

Pets are like small children. They: * can mimic the actions of their hoomans * can act dramatic * need to be taken care of * love to play * have feelings just like humans * can love/hate cuddles * are naturally curious * can be taught different things * get into mischief * can be very smart * can be needy/clingy * throw tantrums * want to sleep with you * need to be fed regularly * want to eat your food too * want/love to be the center of attention * can get excited to see you come home * can get excited when going to see Grandma/Grandpa * can get excited to go to the park * can be stubborn and not listen * can love/hate going to the Dr's (vet) * have accidents * need to be potty trained * go to daycare * can love/hate baths * wake you in the middle of the night * run to you when scared * don't always look before crossing the road ... just like a toddler. Did I miss anything? lol My only kids are my feline furbabies. :-)

My cat hogs the bed! I have to do stretches just to get around her!

[@johnyricco1220]

After my cat passed away 3 years ago, squirrels took over my back yard and holes everywhere stashing their food. My boy kept them at bay for many years and I didn’t even know 😹

[@edwardmeagher2816]

Honour his memory by giving another cat a loving home.

[@scrappyjack1]

​@@edwardmeagher2816 I agree. Somewhere there is a lonely kitty who needs to be in your life. ❤

[@citticat2]

The only thing I care about is that she knows and stays attuned to staying safe when she is enjoying the outdoors. I doubt cats "prolong" your life but for sure these furry creatures increase the quality.

My sweet Chachi, adopted me at 3 years from a shelter. She's been a joy, friend and companion for the past 16 years. oh how I wish my kitty would not Talk To Me So Much in the am...and 'wait'....she is 20+ years and Howls at me in the morning to get out of bed and feed her. I think she has wee bit of dementia.

[@missthang4982]
