Pets Heal The Soul: 5 Pets Showing Incredible Compassion Towards People.

A cat and a dog are comforting their owners.

Do we take care of our pets, or do they take care of us? Honestly, the relationship between pet parents and their four-legged family members is pretty much fifty-fifty! When we treat our furry friends well, they pay us back with their love, loyalty, and lots of cuddles. In fact, sometimes our pets offer compassion when no one else does.

Animals seem to have a sixth sense that lets them know when their humans could use a little extra emotional support. Here are some of the sweetest cats and dogs on the internet who know exactly what to do when their owners are in distress! We guarantee these thoughtful pets will melt your heart.
