I too am alone, no husband, no children. My pets (don't even like to call them that) keep me going.
My 13 yo chihuahua died last year, it was a sudden illness on top of a chronic condition and I was devastated. I still had a 11 year old Kelpie to care for and a 10 yo cat so I still had responsibilities and companionship. Since then my father bought a rescue kitten from the Council pound and she is a real source of entertainment and unconditional love. Even my old cat and dog are amused by her antics. I'm very lucky all my "girls" get along and look after each other.
Gidget..........Kelpie
Betty............Cat
