- Pets are more connected; people may not.
- If you are distressed, they know how to calm you down.
- Research has proved that stroking your pet can elevate your mood.
- An emotional connect with a pet helps to release oxytocin: the mood enhancer.
- Depressed people feel less lonely in the company of pets.
- Pet owners tend to exercise more, as pets are dependent on them for daily routine.
