Pet Therapy!

Had a stressful day? Pet your Cat! Petting your cat does more than just provide a bonding experience between owner and pet. Studies show that repeatedly petting a cat relaxes your nervous system. It stimulates the brain through what is called "tactile sensation" (the feeling you have on your hand as you pet your cat), causing you to relax.. Studies have also shown that petting a cat lowers your blood pressure. Cats have even been used in therapy for patients with high blood pressure. So take a moment and LOVE your Kitty! You will both be Relaxed and Happy!!!
