This is yet another testament to the power of cats on the internet.
Sure, cats have a notorious reputation for coming off as jerks, but one Australian study suggested that cat owners rate themselves psychologically better than those who don’t own pets.
It can get even better if there are kids around, as they, too, benefit from having a cat around the house.
And that’s actually doing something. Just having a cat around the house means lower resting heart rate and blood pressure while feeling more challenged than threatened by harder tasks and making fewer errors that way.
Even better, having a bond with a cat translates into having better relationships with humans, too.
When someone - animal or human - makes us feel good, it fosters kindness and generosity toward others. So, yeah, cuddles with cats have become more awesome now.
But once you’re over that hill, the journey towards a better life begins. Both for you and your feline friend.
But if that’s enough cat internet for you today, then why not write something in the comment section below?
