She overcame an eating disorder all thanks to her little furry savior (Gallery)

It's beautiful how our cats can get us through the darkest times. 

Like the story of Iris, a little girl with autism who found her voice thanks to her faithful companion, or the woman who overcame depression thanks to her little feline, or the soldier who believes his cat kept him alive during his tour. 

This young woman in the story below overcame an eating disorder, and she says she owes all the thanks to her cat, Jinx.

"A little montage to the kitty who saved me from an eating disorder," annamageddon shared on reddit. 

"So I adopted my cat jinx three years ago and he has completely cured me of my eating disorder."

"I had lived alone for a very long time and over time formed an obsession with body image and my weight."

"Since getting Jinx he's filled whatever void in my life that I needed to be filled."

"He demands my attention and I no longer have time to worry about the things that I would previously."

"I love this little guy and I hope that all of you have similarly positive experiences with your pet cats :)"

Sometimes just having that little fur friend demanding attention is all you need to get through the day.
