I took my new kitten into my T's office. It was lovely.
Several other T's in his practice have dogs, including the T he shares an office with. They use them as part of therapy, I believe for exactly the purpose you talk about.
Animals are wonderfully comforting, and loving, and accepting. There have been times when all I wanted was to hold onto something comforting. I finally made a pillow which I leave there, and I often hold it.
