I must admit that this "logic" confounds me. I adore cats. Yet I recognize they are no substitute for people. You have to be mightily solipsistic to think a mute animal can somehow stand in for humans and their ability to, you know, be something other than a mere projection.https://twitter.com/PsychToday/status/1163239402958663686 …

Having had (and loved) both dogs and cats, there is no comparison in terms of the kind of bond you form. Dogs are wired for social interaction. Cats love the attention, but it's a whole different level with canines.

Also, that Psych Today article was specifically about older people, who statistically are more likely to be single/live alone/be depressed than younger folk. It's one thing to tell a 25- (or even 40) -year-old to get out there and date/mingle. Quite another for a senior citizen.
