ICanHas Users Share Heartwarming Reasons Why They Are Thankful For Their Pets

Hi folks! We don't know about y'all but we are still in a food coma…several days later. When Thanksgiving comes it hits us like the school bus hits Regina George and leaves us out for the count. To celebrate this year, we asked our users to tell us a reason or two why they are thankful for their pets. And as usual, our users did not disappoint.

People poured in from left from right and from every corner of the social media world to share with us why they are thankful for their beloved pets. It made us realize that we have so very much to be thankful for this holiday season, and our pets are right up amongst the top reasons. They support us when we are down, give us love when we feel alone, and add so much cheer and joy to our lives every single day. We'd like to take this moment to appreciate all of the wonderful pets of the world and say thank you, for being so faithful and loving to your human counterparts. We surely appreciate it.
