Health Benefits of Pet Ownership
For some people, the idea of welcoming a dog or cat into their home seems like an influx of responsibility and obligation they would rather avoid. But for devoted pet owners, their furry friends are beloved members of the family with whom they share a mutually beneficial relationship. Whichever camp you fall into, it can’t hurt to brush up on themany benefits of owning a pet.
Fitness: Pets need regular activity and, if a dog becomes your pet of choice, you’ll also be signing up for daily walks to help your furry friend keep in shape. In turn, you’ll also feel the benefit of regular, low-impact exercise. According to a recent survey, 36 percent of pet owners said that having a pet has helped them lose weight. Childhood Learning & Responsibility: Having a pet in the home is a great way for children to learn valuable life lessons in a fun, rewarding way. From the daily responsibility of feeding, exercising and caring for the animal to understanding more about illness and loss, it can equip your children (or grandchildren) with the emotions to cope better with important life events as they grow up. Companionship: The presence of a pet in the home can boost your mood, especially after a hectic work day or even following a difficult conversation. Said animal will also be your go-to companion of choice to watch a movie or cuddle up with to read a book. Mental Health: Not only do pets provide companionship and help improve your physical health, they can also provide therapeutic and emotional benefits. According to Ingrid Collins, a consultant psychologist at the LondonMedical Centre, “Animals have a completely different agenda to humans, and bring things back to basics. They want comfort, feeding and love. In return, they give huge affection.” Congrats, Grad!! You made it! We are so proud of you, Aahil!
