Animals seek physical comfort which provides them satisfaction or contentment. The golden retriever rolling in the grass, the horse with his nose deep in the oats or the kitty by the fire, are all images that evoke satisfaction and happiness. Hence, Option C is correct.
The rest of the options are neither mentioned nor implied by the passage in relation to the given lines, hence they're incorrect.
