My pets brighten my day! What about yours ?
I have two cats and a dog. Bebe is a black and white long hair, Zoe is a gray short hair and our dog Chloe is a black and white boarder collie.
It’s hard to get down about MS when I have these pets to brighten my day!
I would love to hear what kind of pets you have and how they lift your spirits!

ok so I have two cats that generally ignore me, my wife feeds than and it also may have something to do with me standing on one of the cats tails some years back – it was an accident. Build a bridge and get over it!!
Recently due to 18 months of pressure from my 11 year old daughter we bought a dog, well a shih Tzu puppy. I was worried that my lack of balance and mobility would be a hindrance..and all the care would fall to my wife. Well generally the care does fall to my wife, but I am chief play master and that I can do, kneeling or lying on the floor, admittedly my hand does now look like I self harm, but a small price to pay for the absolute love and affection that is returned by the dog. Every morning she is now placed on my bed (too small to get up on her own) and she licks me continually to wake up… a delight to be woken like that.. taking her for a walk may be an issue but I am working on that, getting her used to my mobility scooter.
We have only had her for four months but its hard to think of life without her there are issues but to be honest not half as bad as I thought.

I am and have always been a dog person, dogs are-were my life…Sadly all three have now departed, our last furbaby we-I lost 17 months ago…We have one Cocker Spaniel left, he is now a senior dog but belongs more to, and is closer to the man I share my home with…so yes I feel totally lost and empty now my baby’s are gone…yest blessed that I could walk them at the time before MS took hold of me, well all apart from our most recent loss…

I have 3 dogs, Cocoa, Reno and Pudgey, actually Pudgey is my granddog. Our pets know when something is wrong and cuddle up with you and follow you around. They have a way of saying, it’ll be ok. I love all 3 dogs but Cocoa is mine and sleeps with us. The other two have their own bedroom.

Here I am walking Joey, our Cocker Spaniel. (Joe Cocker, get it)? He’s 11 years old but still thinks he’s a puppy.
