Of all the family pets, I personally think cats just might be the easiest, most rewarding pets to own. Plus, let’s face it. Cats are good for you! If you have ever owned a cat, you know this is true.

6 Reasons Cats Are Good For You
1. Cats Make You Laugh.
There is no question- cats make you laugh. I mean they are just so crazy and they do such hilarious things! And laughing is not only good for your soul, it is also the best medicine. My cat, Ron, loves to cuddle with stuffed animals. He cracks me up when I catch him milking the polar bear!
2. Cats Snuggle With You When You Need Some Love.
Well, I should say, cats may snuggle with you when you need some love. You know how cats are, sometimes they are very busy doing other things like frisking about the house but most of the time, they will snuggle with you.
3. Cats Always Listen.
When you just need to complain to someone about that really annoying thing, cats will listen. And they won’t repeat a word of it. Plus, they always understand and never contradict you. Cats are such good listeners!
4. Cats Make Sure You Don’t Work Too Hard.
Cats are so sweet like that- selfless really. Cats make sure that you take a break by climbing on top of your book so you don’t strain your eyes too much. Cats help you take a break from working on the computer by climbing onto your keyboard. Cats look out for you.
5. Cats Remind You To Take A Nap.
Cats know you need a nap, so they lead by example and model cat naps for you. Almost 24 hours a day, they model the cat nap to try to induce you to take the nap you need. The rest of they time they rush wildly about to show you what you look like!
6. Cats Really Are Good For You.
If my other reasons didn’t seem serious enough for you, then here is some rock hard science to show that cats are good for you. Cat purrs have healing power. The infographic below is from Daily Infographic and shows that cats really are good for you, from reducing stress to helping heal broken bones!!
So now you know, cats are good for you! If you don’t have a kitty yet, I am sure there is a local animal shelter or humane society that has a few waiting to be adopted. If you do have a cat, make sure you show your thanks by giving kitty some extra cuddles and some top quality cat food, like Wellness® TruFood, it has more of what pets need to be vibrant and happy!
Here is my cat, Ron, chowing down his Wellness® TruFood Baked Blends. Slow-baked in small batches, TruFood has 70% more raw protein than typical dry cat food. It is a blend of whole-prey protein, grain-free fiber, antioxidant-rich superfoods and probiotics. Find out more at wellnesspetfood.com

Cats are good for you! Thank your cat with quality food! Do you have a cat? Share your reasons that your cat is good for your family!
Although I do not currently have a cat, I do know that they make great pets. Every time I visit my sister’s house, I spend time playing with her foster cats, in particular “catch the light”.
In the future I would consider getting a cat. My kids love our dog and I am sure a cat would complete our family.
Ron is a beautiful orange kitty! When we had my cat, Rainbow, he made us laugh all the time. He was quite a character, and I miss him and will get another cat one day.
Awe, your post makes me want a cat so bad! My son is also eager to adopt a cat. We are trying to convince my husband. In the meantime, we live vicariously through relatives and friends who have cats!
I use to be a dog person until my husband and I ended up getting two cats. After getting the cats I realized that I’m more of a cat person. I love my cats a lot and I can relate to many of these things you have listed. They’re amazing pets!
Yes I do have a cat, his name is Jules. I am a total cat person, I have had a cat pretty much for my entire life. After the sound of my son’s voices, the sound of a cat purring is my favorite sound.
