Pets are great, aren’t they? 

Besides companionship, our pets give us so much. 

Our pets enrich our lives and bring us joy and laughter in tough times. Some pets help us with our work, while others soothe our hurts and alert us to potential harm.

Pets can even benefit your overall health and wellness. Having a pet is associated with better mental health, reduced stress and more physical exercise.

Do you have a pet in your life whose presence you love and appreciate? Today, we invite you to share a picture of your pet!
