College can be a stressful time in a person’s life, which is why it always helps to have a friend to count on. Speaking of friends, pets make great ones. They increase our sense of accountability, giving us many reasons to face the day.

Here’s an inspiring story of Caroline Clendening who is a creation and tourism management major from Dallas, Texas. When she started college, she was diagnosed with depression and it made it difficult for her to interact with others, let alone eat. During her second year, she decided to adopt a pet cat and certify it as an emotional support animal. Her cat’s name is JiJi.

Caroline, now a fourth year, recalls how her life has changed since JiJi came. Because JiJi was counting on her each day, that motivated Caroline to carry on. Caroline is now the president of the club You’re Not Alone.

If you want to ease the stress of college life, know that cats are not the only options for pets. There are other animals that make you feel better. Examples are dogs, rabbits, turtles, and more.
