Distractions
I didn't look for them. God knew what I needed so he sent me distractions. And yes they helped me deal. I had so much to deal with, parents dying, nowhere to live, sad all the time, empty inside. I was depressed, sad and lonely. I felt like an orphan. My life as I had known it was gone, replaced by this weird existence. I wasn't living life, I was merely going through the motions. You know, wake up, get dressed (maybe), eat (maybe), brush teeth, cry, go on computer look for something, anything to distract me from the pain, the anguish I was feeling. Strangely enough, social media did help. I spent a lot of time looking at my computer screen trying to lose myself in other people's dull and boring lives.

Best Dog Breeds for Families with Cats
Cats and dogs are legendary enemies. Many dogs will attack cats on sight, just by instinct alone. Thankfully, many breeders have realized that this isn't the way things should be — and as a result, many dogs are quite friendly to their feline counterparts.
