For many, mental health can not only be a challenge in itself, but can oftentimes be a lonely battle. For PAWS NY, a nonprofit pet organization, pets are not just great companions, but are powerful healing aids. <\/p>\n

To highlight the mental health benefits pets can provide, PAWS NY and agency Klick Health launched a heart-tugging short film, The Bridge, focused on the importance of having a pet as a companion during difficult times. <\/p>\n

The animated spot is part of PAWS NY\u2019s larger initiative to help New Yorkers overcome physical and financial pet care challenges to maintain the life-saving bond between humans and their animal companions. Written and produced by Klick Health and animated by Lightfarm Studios, the film, inspired by a true story, explores how the characters\u2019 connection ends up saving both their lives.<\/p>\n

The four-minute spot, set to the tune of Grammy-winning musician Lou Reed\u2019s 1972 hit \u201cPerfect Day,\u201d shows the story of a lonely New Yorker going about his everyday routine while struggling with suicidal thoughts. With the use of a raw, edgy illustrative style and blue and gray scenery, the film captures the man\u2019s inner turmoil and mental state. <\/p>\n

The spot continuous as simultaneously an abandoned dog experiences the same kind of rejection and loneliness as the human until their paths repeatedly cross and a quiet bond begins to grow. The tearjerking film ends on the Brooklyn Bridge with the two meeting again as the man finally takes the dog home and feels a bit more happiness with a new companion by his side. <\/p>\n

\u201cI hope \u2018The Bridge\u2019 will serve as a catalyst for more life-changing encounters between pets and people, and will help PAWS NY in their fundraising efforts so they can continue ensuring these important, but often overlooked, life-saving bonds form,\u201d Bernardo Romero, co-writer and \u201cmaker\u201d at Klick Health, said in a statement. <\/p>\n

As mental health remains a significant issue impacting many people, more brands and agencies, such as agency Havas Lisbona<\/a>, dog food brand The Farmer\u2019s Dog<\/a> and Whistle Health<\/a>, stress the important role pets play in their owners\u2019 physical and mental health. For PAWS NY, the vital connection between people and pets is a necessary conversation of awareness. <\/p>\n

\u201cOur goal with this film is to get people talking about the positive impact pets can have on our mental health,\u201d Rachel Herman, founder and executive director at PAWS NY, said in a statement. \u201cNow more than ever, it\u2019s important to keep these life-saving connections alive.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
