Pets, whether they be dogs, cats, horses, or hamsters, enrich the lives of their owners and the people around them. Pets provide people with companionship, often picking up on a person's feeling and emotions. They share our excitement, whether going on a run or playing around, and soothe us when we're in pain.
Another great benefit of having a pet is having an extended life span. Studies show that people who have pets, especially elderly owners, tend to live longer than those who do not. This shows that having the responsibility to care for and the enjoyment of sharing your life with a furry, or even scaly, companion helps to extend your years of living and enjoy them more in the process.
