A person who is an animal lover is likely very empathetic toward animals, enjoys being around them, and feels a pull to help them when they can.
Studies have determined that pet owners and animal lovers are less likely to be lonely. Besides your pet’s companionship, pets also make it easier for you to connect with congenial humans.
Spending time with a pet has been found to lower blood pressure, reduce stress hormones, and release chemicals that trigger relaxation even when there’s a lot on your plate. Pets also increase social support, which has been found to improve cardiovascular, endocrine, and immune function.
These lovely vintage photos were found by
