Thanks to various studies, it is known that watching videos of cats gives positive emotions and improves mood. And even more so, if there is a cat in your house, life becomes more fun and interesting, because you won’t get bored with these animals. Cat owners have a number of advantages, and here are some of them:
Exercise stress
Let's start with the simplest. Play is a physical activity. There are, of course, lazy cats that even hunt while lying down. But most animals still run around the house, climb somewhere and jump while playing. This means that our mustaches do exercises at this time, their blood circulation improves, intestinal motility increases, their appetite increases, and much more.

Physical activity is no less important for cats than for humans. Cats with reduced physical activity develop obesity, diabetes, heart disease and many other ailments. If you want your cat to be healthy and live a long time, you need to play with him at least 2 times a day for 15 minutes.
Surprising but true
Cats help strengthen bones. It would seem that this sounds paradoxical, but this is a scientifically proven fact. Felines themselves are known for their “nine lives”, the ability to fall from great heights without any consequences, but they can also share their health with others. Their purring creates positive vibrations, the effect of which is comparable to ultrasound therapy. This effect activates recovery processes in the body; owners are able to recover faster from injuries, damage to joints, ligaments, tendons and bones. Fractures heal faster, joints quickly restore their previous mobility.

Once you've started one coffee shop, it's impossible to stop. And someone brings several to the house at once! Most people clearly have a pet addiction, and for good reason.
Convenient neighbor
Firstly, the presence of catfish in the house will not bring discomfort to the household. The cat does not take up much space on the bed. If he decides that there is not enough space, he will calmly switch to a closet. Fluffy ones eat like midgets! Not a bucket of porridge in two days, but a modest 300-400 grams of feed. The vocals are not as loud as those of a parrot. Plus, catfish are very demanding about the cleanliness of their carcass. And some also make complaints to the owners about the cleanliness of the tray and apartment.
Warm and good!
Cats, like experienced neurologists, carefully check their owners. When a fluffy one climbs onto a person and begins to knead him, he prepares a springboard for warming up. Each purr, releasing its claws, irritates the upper layers of the dermis. The biped's body perceives this as a signal to action, and heat flows to the area. Sometimes cats knead where there is inflammation - they are attracted by the increased temperature. By providing an influx of heat, both warm up.
Whiskered exterminator
In ancient times, cats were bred in order to rid the house and yard of annoying rodents that carried a huge number of ailments. What is the probability that a group of rats that have settled near a country house are as pure as a drop of rock crystal? The cat will definitely make sure that no unpleasant neighbors take up residence on its territory. For many owners, a cat remains not only a friend, but also a personal exterminator, both in a city apartment and in a summer cottage.
Favorite purr!
Scientists have studied cats' purring for a long time. It turned out that this is an incredibly useful feature. When a cat brings kittens, she purrs especially loudly. Can you guess why? The vibration that spreads throughout the body from this sound speeds up the recovery process. Simply put, a new mother comes to her senses faster. But purring has the same effect on the human body. In theory, when a cat purrs, the mood improves and strength is restored.
Calm, just calm
You pet a cat, and she exposes her belly. You scratch behind the ears, and she rubs against her legs. You scratch her on the back, and she sings songs to you. Isn't it a miracle? And in such moments it becomes warm, calm and cozy, and a smile creeps out onto the “facing” itself. This kind of human behavior is not isolated. Regular stroking of a cat provokes the production of oxytocin and its powerful release into the body. The “tenderness hormone” makes a person more balanced and self-confident.
Everything will be fine!
Furry animals have a vomeronasal organ. The “device” helps to read the odors produced by the body of living beings. In nature, a cat will sense the scent of a predator and be able to predict its desires by the scent. At home, the furry beauty will feel the sadness or irritability of her person. When necessary, he will hide, and when there is a need, he will support him with a friendly “meow!” He will look into his eyes, and there will be a running line in them: “everything will be fine!”
Indicator and toggle switch
A cat's empathy can be used to your advantage. Wise cat owners have learned to trust the opinions of their charges. It's time for others to do the same. It's rare that a cat will hiss at a person for no reason. They feel comfortable around kind and positive guests. And if a cat feels threatened by a person, it will not allow imposing passage nearby. Does the animal hide, flatten its ears and avoid its neighbor? Better keep an eye out for him! Is it enough?!
Emotional relief
The cat appears when the owner is almost ready to lose control. My soul is boiling, fatigue has overcome me, I can’t accomplish anything and fall out of my hands. But then a four-legged creature with a touching “face” appeared from around the corner. The hand automatically reaches out to stroke it, attention instantly switches from problems to your beloved friend. Fluffy continues to sit nearby, like a real lightning rod. She has nowhere to rush, and there is no threat of a nervous breakdown. Looking at a balanced and calm animal, a person returns to normal.
Don't do it yourself
Cat owners cannot be irresponsible people. Feed, change the tray and water in the drinking bowl on time, go for walks together and monitor their health. This is just a small list of what every cat owner should do. Pets teach their two-legged animals discipline, which has a positive effect on other areas of life. If before a person was constantly late, now he won’t be. After all, the cat woke up a little earlier because she wanted to eat.
Real love!
When there is a cat in the house, the owner will never feel lonely. This is both a night vision device and a 24-hour video surveillance camera. And a perpetual motion machine, a pusher and a jumper. The very fact of having a cat nearby makes a person happier. The owners know that they are loved not for their food. It is impossible to buy a cat with sausage! Cats respect and love the person himself: for his character, care, affection and love. And the owner, realizing that someone really needs him, becomes happier!

There is an opinion that with a cat loneliness is not felt acutely
Although a cat will never be as loyal as a dog, its owner will not have to feel lonely when receiving a response from her pet. The furry neighbor trusts his owner, but builds truly strong relationships with those who know how to compromise.
A very important advantage of cats is emotional support; they sense the mood and are ready to silently listen for hours to her complaints about colleagues or neighbors. You can safely entrust your most intimate secret to a cat; she will not only listen, but will never give it away.
The best antidepressant
When you come home after work and you just want to relax, unwind and calm down, your pet will definitely come to you to relieve you of the negativity and fatigue that has accumulated during the day. The longer you stroke it, the sooner you will return to normal. As scientists say, cats intuitively sense the state and mood of their owners. Therefore, if you are too tired or simply not feeling well, then you should pet the cat and the fatigue will leave you.
Lonely cat lady syndrome
About twenty years ago I had to stay with a friend in Moscow. The woman was about 50 years old, she worked in a publishing house, and had never been married. She and three cats lived in a two-room apartment. In the morning, a friend made coffee, got ready for work, and returned closer to midnight.
Not only was the smell in the apartment extremely unpleasant, but there was also something “mystical” going on in the kitchen. Animal hair was invariably found in cups and plates, although they rarely appeared in the kitchen. Now, the pet care industry is not standing still. Various fillers, dry food, anti-odor sprays have appeared, and sanitary issues are no longer so pressing. It would seem that there is only one benefit from the proximity of a lonely woman and a cat.
So for what reasons do single ladies prefer being with a cat to quiet solitude?
