Cats. But why?
Cats are really good pets to keep. Once trained, they seem to be friends with their owner. They love being petted around, but, sometimes when annoyed, they may not act the same. Cats can be a good option to keep, because if you are bored, you always have them on your back. Owning a cat can bring unconditional love and companionship to your life. According to science, if you spend 15 – 30 minutes a day petting, cuddling, and playing with your cat, your overall mood can be boosted. Cats have also been known to help with loneliness, anxiety, depression, and more. If you're looking for a pet that requires a little less attention, a cat might be your best bet. Cats can sense how people are feeling, so your cat actually can tell when you're sad. Cats can definitely sense when you are sad because they are highly attuned to your normal behaviors and moods, and if there is a change, they sense it. Cats speak about your personality as well. If you have a kitten, you are warm-hearted. If you have an angry cat, you are pretty strict and so on.
Dogs. But why?
Spending just 15-30 minutes with your dog can help you feel more calm and relaxed, reducing stress and increasing happiness. Dog owners have a much higher rate of recovery from being sick than non-dog owners. In fact, humans with pooches who suffer from heart attacks are twice as likely to fully recover as those without! Your dog requires daily exercise, and so do you! Dog owners carry the responsibility of playing with and working their dogs, so it only makes sense that dog people tend to be more active. They reduce stress, anxiety, and depression, ease loneliness, encourage exercise and playfulness, and even improve your cardiovascular health. They can increase opportunities to exercise, get outside, and socialize. Regular walking or playing with pets can decrease blood pressure, cholesterol levels, and triglyceride levels. Dogs can help manage loneliness and depression by giving us companionship too! Most importantly, the breed of dog you have, speaks a lot about your personality. If you have a husky, you might be considered generous. If you have a Pomerian, you might be a pretty busy and calm person.
Thank you! :)
