Oddly was born on her human mom AND sister's birthdays, which is statistically...odd. She's brought a lot of happiness, hope, and healing to her fam, which is statistically...very likely because animals are everything. Statistics say that one in five people will experience a mental health condition each year and one in two will experience a condition in their lifetime. Not to get too math-y on a Saturday, but that's a LOT of people. So many people, in fact, that you probably know one or two or many who live with a mental health condition—and there's nothing "odd," "weird," or "not normal" about them. . . 📸: @Stephanie.Kristine / @Oddly.Rey #TherapyPets #MentalHealth #Sphynx #SphynxCat #SphynxOfInstagram #SphynxCatsOfInstagram #SphynxLove #SphynxLife #Sphyntagram #SphynxCats #SphynxLover 
Newton's first law of motion: an object in motion will stay in motion unless acted on by an external force. Coincidentally, that's also Newton's first law of being a doggo—but his outside force usually looks a whole lot like a treat. Newton is a quiet, calm, chill, friendly guy. He's Canadian, so he matches some stereotypes that way. But often, stereotypes fuel mental health stigma. Newton's second law: how fast we end stigma depends on how often we dispel myths about mental health conditions. . . 📸: @Newton_Inu #TherapyPets #MentalHealth #ShibaInu #ShibaInuDog #InstaShiba #ShibaLove #ShibaDog #Shibastagram #Shibagram #ShibaInus #ShibaInuOfInstagram #ShibaInuLove 
Mila is really living up to the goldendoodle name. This happy bear is pure sunshine and her hooman's SOLmate. Mila's rays of cuteness melt alllll the stresses and worries away, and legend has it she's never been seen without a smile on her face. The golden rule is to treat others how you want to be treated, so take a smile and pass it on. There's plenty to go around. . . 📸: @HappyBearMila #TherapyPets #MentalHealth #Doodle #GoldenDoodle #GoldenDoodlesOfInstagram #GoldenDoodles #GoldenDoodleLove #GoldenDoodleLife #DoodlesOfInstagram #GoldenDoodlesOfIG #GoldenDoodlesOfInsta #GoldenDoodleLovers #GoldenDoodleLover 
Peony is here, and she is in full bloom!! 🌺 Peony is so active, kind, and smart (no garden variety pups here). We hoomans are usually so go-go-go that we don't stop and smell the roses, the peonies, or any of the flowers. Taking time to pawse and be mindful can really boost mental health, whether that's through yoga, meditation, or just sitting and staying. . . 📸: @PomPomPomski #TherapyPets #MentalHealth #Pomeranian #Pomeranians #PomeraniansOfInstagram #PomeranianLife #PomeranianDogs #PomeranianWorld #PomeranianLovers #PomeranianLove 
Is this a Wookie? No, it’s Weener. He’s a fluffy grandpa of a dog who loves food and his human. Weener is here because it’s Tuesday and that means you made it through Monday — and that means you can help others make it too. That happens by just asking what’s up and caring about the answer. Look at Weener: He cares. It’s all in the face. 1 in 5 humans live with a mental health condition, so reach out this week, and when you do, be a Weener. . . 📸: @foof_weener_squishy_ #therapypets #mentalhealth #maythe4thbewithyou #starwarsday #cockerspaniel #cockerspanielsofinstagram #cockerspanielworld #cockerspaniellove #cockerspaniels #cockerspanielcuties 
Look, Simba. Everything the light touches is the weekend. A weekend’s time rises and falls like the sun. One day, Simba, the sun will set on this weekend and rise with a new work week. But not today. You made it to the weekend. Be royalty like Simba and roar for your people. . . 📸: @simba.blh #therapypets #mentalhealth #britishlonghair #britishlonghaircat #britishlonghaircats #catlove #catsofinstagram #catsofig #cutecat 
Hoppin' into the weekend like Hazel 🐰. She and her human have been through a lot, but they’ve been through it together. Give some love and get it back. You don’t need bunny ears to hear the truth in that. TGI-Hazel! . . #therapypets #mentalhealth #tgif #bunny #rabbit #bunniesofinstagram #rabbitsofinstagram #bunnylove #bunnies #bunnyrabbit #bunnylover #bunnystagram #bunnygram #bunnylife #bunnybunny #rabbitlife #rabbits #rabbitsofig 
Pixie and Peanut are the ultimate sister duo. The golden girls are energetic, loving, bonded, and obsessed with playing ball. They can play ball at the dog park all day and never get tired. While they never start trouble with other dogs, they don't have many dog friends because of their ball obsession and bonded love for each other. But who needs extra friends when you have your bestie by your side and a ball to chase? Could you be a Pixie to a Peanut? People living with mental health conditions could often use a friend, co-worker, or roommate who is as cool with them as anyone else. If you're looking for an ice-breaker, throwing a ball around seems to work... . . 📸: @supersarahrose #therapypets #mentalhealth #goldenretriever #goldenretrievers #goldenretrieversofinstagram #goldenretrieverlove #goldenretrieverlife #goldens #goldensofinstagram
