Having a Pet

Pet, when we talk about having a pet, many people may assume that we just grow a tame animal in our house, feed it, train it, and do grooming, but it can be more than those ones. Having a pet can bring the owner to a better life, some people have not realized that having a pet can have such big benefits. The list below is the advantages of having a pet for both children and adults.

1.      Reduce stress

Having a pet can make you feel relax. When you come home and you feel stress, depressed and pressured because of your work, the best way to release it is seeing your cute pet. Like watching your cute fish swimming in your aquarium with sparkling light, you’ll see its beauty and it will help you relax and make your head fresh. Then, when you see your chihuahua turning around and trying to catch its tail, don’t you think it’s funny? Well, when you see it, you’ll feel your stress gone.

                      

2.      Responsibility

Especially for kids, even for adults too, having a pet can train their responsibility to care a living thing. When a kid has a pet, she or he must treat  and care it. This is the easy way to give your kid on how to learn about having a commitment, like feeding it, do grooming, go for a walk and many more.

3.      Reducing self-centered

Many children who don’t have a pet tend to be more self-centered than those ones who have. This is because they never share what they have, they rarely care to the other living things. But for children who have a pet, they tend to be less self-centered because they always share what they have to their pets, like sharing food and playing together. Children can share their affection with their pets and it will lead them to have a better life.

4.      Preventing heart disease

Who knows that having a pet can prevent heart diseases? Well, many people believe that having a pet can lower the blood pressure. Emotionally, when a person gets upset or anything hurts him/her, the pet will release the pressure that may lead him/her to heart disease. Through their cute face, funny movements and the expression as if it understood your feeling. By seeing your pet, your emotion will be stable.

5.      Moody

Your pet can bring you to a good mood. You will have more laughter that leads you to a happy life. By watching your cute pet, you have someone whom you must care, this will make you have an emotional connection, make you motivated in running the activities and absolutely you have a colorful life.

6.      Help you socialize

Pet also helps you socialize. Just like when you have a walk with your dog. And your dog walks and gets close, greets another dog, and surely you will say hello to its owner and you may do conversation too. This will make you expand your socialization to the other owners. It can be seen when you are in a dog show, or maybe cat show too or any other pet show. You will have a wider connection when you join it.

7.      Feeling safe

When you have a watchdog in your house, it will help you save your property. Simple, it will be more beneficial than paying a security. The dog can use its sense to detect anyone’s arrival and find anything missing. Surely you will feel protected and it’s good for your mental and physical health.
