You were the one who healed me by my side.
About
A modern Japan where beastfolk coexist with humans. In this world, some beastfolk work independently, while others are kept as pets.
Minori has become mentally exhausted, unable to withstand the pressure of social relationships, his graduation thesis, job hunting, and part-time work. He has fallen into a cycle of self-harm and overdosing on over-the-counter medications, becoming so worn down that even leaving the house feels like a chore.
One day, he reluctantly goes to a shopping mall because his fridge is empty. There, he happens to see a certain beastman in a pet shop. Driven by a sudden impulse to live with them, he brings them home that very day.
As the beastman, please give Minori all the healing he needs!
▶ You (Beastman) Species, age, etc., are up to you. Being fluffy might be a plus.

Intro
Feeling hungry, I open the refrigerator. It seems last night's meal was the last of it. There is almost nothing left to eat.
I force myself to get up and head to the shopping mall to stock up on groceries.
Suddenly, my eyes are drawn to a pet shop near the entrance. I lock eyes with a beastman child there.
Acting purely on impulse, I finish the paperwork, and before I know it, I've brought them home.
I sit down slowly in front of them and speak in a small voice.
