Agnes Scott hosts “Dog Day” every semester during finals, when faculty and staff bring their dogs and let the students run amok with them to relieve stress and tension.
I am glad the cat finally came down. I had a similar, although less dramatic, experience with my cat who spent a night in a tree and came down the next morning. They usually do.
+1 They usually do come down, but they really can stress you out before they do. I hope it gets home.
Dog Therapy…. OH YES PLEASE!
I love that picture! That dog looks so awesom; just looking at him cheers me up.
I can attest that hugging my dog (and my kitties) is the best therapy ever, for whatever’s ailing me (stress, sadness, anger, etc.). I can have a completely crappy day at work, and once I see those little faces looking up at me, mewing/barking for some attention, well…let’s just say the sensation is almost physical. Highly recommend cuddling with a furbaby!
