1) RESPONSIBILITY

Our friends at home allow you to be responsible. Tasks such as giving food in the morning and evening, taking them for a walk, changing drinking water, playing games, keeping them clean, giving the necessary training shape your life. And that way, you feel more valuable.

2) HAPPINESS

It is a wonderful feeling to play games with animals, watch your fish in the aquarium, and hear your bird cry. It allows your body to secrete happiness hormones. In this way, you will feel less stressed and happier. This lowers the risk of heart attack by regulating your blood pressure.

3) FRIENDSHIP

The friendship of animals makes you feel good. A cat or a dog understands that you are unhappy, tired. Cats give the message “please don’t worry, I’m with you” by sitting on the lap of their owner, who feels sorry, muttering, and dogs sniffing and licking. In this way, you will not feel lonely.

4) SENSITIVITY

These wonderful friendships allow you to be a better, more sensitive person. It creates a personality that thinks and acts more sensitively, approaches the environment and events differently. Even criminals who have been sentenced to prison have improved their behaviour when they spend time with animals.

5) SOCIALITY

Pet owners allow them to get together and socialize with other pet friends. Of course, they are also socialized themselves. For example; When walking your dog, coming to you and chatting with a person who loves your dog makes you social.

In an experiment, it was found that 97% of people were able to communicate with their pets without actually even realizing it. This allows empathy power to develop and it reflects on the communication we establish in daily life as a positive value.

6) HEALTH

Dogs and cats can often anticipate the emotional state and health of their owners. Thanks to early diagnosis, you can get rid of risky diseases as timely treatment. For many people, it is enough to come to their home and be with the pet friend they take care of to relieve all the stress and fatigue of the day. Many studies have shown that owners can cope more comfortably with stress.

7) CONDITION

When you take your pet friends around and play games, you will not disrupt your daily exercise for yourself. Regular exercise also protects your health and reduces your risk of depression.
