What role does a pet play in our lives?

Will Post, founder of Hound & Gatos Pet Foods Corporation, says that many people underestimate the importance of having a pet in your life. "Pets play a very important role in enriching our lives in many different ways."

We can see that many people have a pet. You can have a dog, cat or other pet. They play an integral part in our lives. We don't feel lonely when we have them.

To have a pet in our life, firstly we have to choose which pet want to have like cat or dog. Let's you want to adopt a cat.

Probably it depends on what you know or if you had any experience with cats before. Let's suppose you don't know anything about cats and have never owned one.

Unless someone has previous experience with cats and is aware of the time, care and attention a kitten needs, I'd usually urge them to consider adopting an adult cat, but whether to adopt a kitten, a young cat or a more mature kitty depends more upon you and your particular circumstances and expectations than upon the cat herself. Adopting any cat - particularly for the first time - can be a little stressful as you get to know each pet shop near me other, and you'll need to devote time to your cat to help her settle into her new home. It is important to think about the future. Can you commit to a kitten for the next twenty years?Young cats of about seven months or more still need a great deal of care and attention, but they've (hopefully) learned the basics of eating, toileting and keeping themselves clean. They're just as - if not more! They are just as playful as kittens and still need to experience their surroundings. Once they are settled in their new home, they can be left alone for short periods. Even though stressed cats often act differently, you will have an indication of their personality type before adopting them. It's very difficult to guess if a small kitten will grow into a bold or shy cat, but if you live in a vibrant, active home with regular visitors, you'll need to adopt a cat with bolder genes that can cope with that challenge.

Here are some of the important roles that pets play in human lives:

Health. The Centres for Disease Control and Prevention(CDC) states that pets can lower blood pressure, cholesterol, and triglyceride levels. Pets can make people live longer and healthier lives.

Loneliness. A pet can reduce loneliness and increase socialization. Pets are great for keeping people connected.

Recovery. There have been several studies conducted that show pets can help those who have chronic illness or are in rehabilitation. A recent study in the journal Rehabilitation Nursing reported that incorporating animal-assisted therapy in acute rehabilitation settings helps patients obtain greater satisfaction.
