Pets help us sleep!

[Catherine]

I think pets are calm at night. They have much better senses and so they know when all is well. Their calmness helps us to be calm and so we sleep better.

Your Misty even when she moved around was so familiar to you that it wouldn't disturb your night.

I feel peaceful when I wake and find the bunny nearby.

When I had cats they always slept on the bed. I even had hamsters who would somehow end up on the bed.
Sharing the night with our pets just seems so normal. Of course they help us sleep.
