Furry friends can supply a lot of therapy… I had better clarify that I’m talking about pets.
I am very thankful for our 2 cats and our cat, as they supply company and stress relief after a long morning at work.
I do not ever consider myself to be the kind of person that obsesses over them, but there are few ways that I utterly spoil them because I love them so much; however for example, we are not for our pets. I would be the only person living in our home, save for the occasional guest; this typically means that if I easily wanted to, I could save money on energy bills by setting the temperature control to a more energy-efficient level when I’m not at the apartment to appreciate the temperature anyway… However, every one of us experienced pretty extreme rapidly increasing temperatures where I live, so as a result, I just cannot justify leaving our pets in uncomfortable conditions. I only adjust the temperature control slightly, because I noticed that in the winter, the multiple of them will curl up together on the couch if I set the temperature too low. For a while, I figured that I could get away with setting the temperature higher in the summer. Then, I noticed that their water bowls had been drained by the time I got to the apartment from work, which was not happening before. As a result, I have decided to allow our pets to appreciate the comforts of temperature control when I am not present. It’s the least I can do to reward them for all the love and affection that they supply me!
