Few things are as soothing as cuddling with your pet. For the most part, our pets are enjoying social distancing because it means we are spending more time with them - more walks, more playing, more cuddling, and more love. What we may or may not realize, is that our pets are helping us as well by being a source of unconditional love, affection and reassurance. Studies have shown that pets often do provide valuable emotional support and can effectively soothe feelings of anxiety. Send us a photo of you and your pet to add to our 'Creature Comfort' collection!
