I feel like they know. If I'm having a bad day my cats will be extra affectionate and by God if it isn't the quickest dopamine release.

Happy that pets exist.

i think we humans are just not in tune with our emotions, we're so chronically isolated and depressed that we never learn to pick up on small vibes and how to help others deal with tough times.

Animals on the other hand have no such worries, they pick up on clues that you're sad and do what they can to help, and over time they learn that the human always laughs and feels better when they lay on their chest and incessantly lick their face.
