Our Story in Action

One unforgettable chapter that reflects everything Positvley Pets stands for.

How We Adopted Jerry and How She Changed Our Lives

When our son was diagnosed with autism, our world shifted in ways we couldn’t fully prepare for. Communication was difficult, social interaction felt overwhelming, and moments of peace were few and far between. Then came Jerry a rescue cat with soft eyes and a heart full of calm.

At first, Jerry was shy and uncertain. But within weeks, something remarkable began to happen. Our son started opening up not through words, but through moments. He laughed more, he found comfort in Jerry’s presence during meltdowns, and he even began sleeping through the night with Jerry curled up beside him.

Jerry didn’t just become a pet; she became family. She was a bridge between our son and the world, teaching us patience, love, and the deep healing power of connection. Watching their bond form inspired the very heart of Positvley Pets.

This story isn’t just ours. It’s one we’ve heard again and again from families whose pets have transformed their lives. That’s why we’re here to share, support, and celebrate the incredible ways pets help people heal, grow, and thrive.
