I really want to get a pet.

I always used to have different kind of pets when I was younger (Cats, bunny's birds etc)

and Ive read on here from a lot of people also in the CPTSD subreddit that one thing that has helped them a lot is having a pet for many different reasons. I think it could really be super good for my mental health like in general 

I really want a cat. But I live in a student house and the official contract states that we are not allowed to have pets. However I know that my landlord is a very nice guy. But asking about stuff like this really makes me super stressed out to be honest. Its not that I think he would necessarily say no but things like this just give me a lot of anxiety. I think I just need some encouragement lol
