Before taking an animal into your home, you need to think everything through carefully, resolve issues with walking, feeding, and so on.

But when there are opportunities, but no determination, you need to seek advice from those who already have a cat in the house, or even more than one. Here are 4 reasons to take a furry pet into your home.

Stress and anxiety

It has long been proven that pets and cats in particular help reduce emotional stress. The simple act of stroking the warm fur of a purring cat has a calming effect and relieves stress. And as we know, stress is the basis of a number of diseases, primarily of the cardiovascular system.

Allergy

Oddly enough, it is thanks to cats that live in a house where there are small children that the risk of developing allergies is significantly reduced, not only to animal hair and saliva, but even to dust and food products.

Physical activity

Whatever dog owners say, cats also help their owners maintain physical activity. You have to clean the litter box, feed the animal, go to the store more often for food or medicine, and so on.
