We used to address ourselves as the owner of our pets. Now, many of us have started calling our pets the owner of us. I then started to think: are we the caregiver of our pets or are our pets the caregiver of us? Sometimes we overlook how our pets have become a family member, a companion, and sometimes, even an offspring, who interacts just as much as the human equivalent would. Perhaps for this reason, some medical centers have started pet therapy. In this sense, I think my cat, who plays such a big role in my healing, takes care of me more than the other way around. <3
