Have you ever wondered if getting a cat would be a good idea? After all, it costs time and money to feed your cat, buy her toys, give her attention, and change that litter in the litter box. So why go through the trouble, you may ask.
There are plenty of reasons as to why cats make great pets. Over today and the next four days, we will show you 5 of the BEST REASONS that you need a cat.
First, and this is one that is undisputable, owning a cat reduces a person's stress levels. When you come home and see a cat run to the door in greeting, it makes you feel less lonely and therefore relieves your stress. Cats can even sense when you're feeling down by your scent and behavior. Cats will generally behave in a comforting way when you feel upset, whether it's rubbing against you or purring.
In addition, owning a cat has other health benefits. A cat's purr does not only reduce stress, but it also lowers blood pressure and risk of heart attack.
There's reason #1 for why cats make the best pets! Come back tomorrow for reason #2.
