October 5, 201411 yr Active Members Without question. I think as you age, it is important to focus on the care of another living creature besides ourselves. http://www.doctoroz.com/blog/mao-shing-ni-lac-dom-phd/live-longer-pets
October 5, 201411 yr I agree. Animals bring peace to most that like them. My grandmother died a few years back and when I would fly home to see her for a few weeks at a time, I would always take her dog with me to the rehab center. I am sure she was happy to see me, but seeing her dog made a real difference in her life. Animals really are great for the elderly. IMHO

October 5, 201411 yr Active Members Of course. My family has always been pet oriented. When my sister from FL would visit our mother in MEM she always brought at least two doxies. Before she could get to our mother's room, many of the residents just had to pet and talk to one or both of the doxies. We are very important to animals and they are very important to us. And, not just party animals. Best regards, RA1
