Maybe 2021 didn't;'t turn out as expected (following the aftermath of Covid), our dogs and cats have repeatedly come to the rescue, they are our superheroes. Leaning into the unconditional love of our furry friends, they always lift our spirits one way or the other with their silly antics.

The love we have for our pets stem from a whole bunch of reasons: They keep us active, and give us cuddles. They help plant a smile on our faces, knowingly and otherwise. They're adorable, and perhaps the world's loveliest comedians.

These adorable sweethearts rouse us from boredom time and time again. When we seem down, although they're oblivious of whatever happened, they soothingly curl up beside us.

At times, they get so playful that we can't help looking on the bright side of life. Our furry friends always provide us with moments of stress-relieving laughter, and leave us with something to smile about.

Our pets don't judge us, they're the best companions, I mean, all they ever do is shower us with love and attention. Whatever the coming year brings, we hope it's wholesome and happier times for you and your loved ones—and your pets, of course.

We've uncovered 16 wholesome pet tales shared by pet owners, from a cat 'obsessed' with wood to an eight-week-old dog who can't sleep without his stuffed elephant. Sit back and enjoy these amazing pet stories as owners try to express the happiness their pets bless them with.

Our mischievous creatures would go to any length so ensure their owners express every single emotion in their body. They're great at creating good memories and we are so thankful for that.

Life doesn't get easier as the days go by, with circumstances and happenstances looking to bring us down. Pet owners might have it easier than others though as they're blessed with pets. 

Here's something amazing that works wonders; knowing we'll go home to the cute eyes and wagging tails of our goofy friends after a stressful day at work. They almost automatically reduce all stress.
