They sense our feelings
We believe animals are the creatures that are in the lower stair of development but this is the visual point of view of human beings. And the level of development belongs in what you take as the highest stair. Animals can’t speak and can’t talk and people say they have no souls. But, people of this day also have no souls so… But, it is not the point. So, to the point: sure, animals are deprived of a number if abilities people are provided with but there is an ability of animals that is rather precious but people have lost it. Animals sense feelings. They sense emotions and feelings of other animals and of people. We can’t sense emotions of other people and that is why we usually leave those people who need our help all alone, but animals never do so. In case you have a dog than you know that it is always next to you in case there is something wrong with you and in case you feel bad and you feel lonely. And they also sense our fear and the whole spectrum of other emotions we have. It is a rather precious ability, you know.
