Would you say owning a hamster can help somewhat with depression?

Question

Answer

I think so. Gives you something to care for and play with. It's not a cure though.

Answer

I got my cat to help with depression which helped because it made me feel needed here because i have a life depending on me. Im not sure a hamster would be as effective as they dont live very long to begin with... also a lot of people get bored of hamsters after a little bit... but pets definitely help- just not a cure.

Answer

I think owning any pet can do that for you. But hamsters life spans aren't very long so I'm not sure they're a pet I would recommend for that specific purpose? Maybe a bunny?
