| | | | | Adopting my cat is definitely one of the best things I've ever done. The way she runs over and meows to greet me when I walk through the door makes me so happy. The comfort she brings me when she hops up on the couch to cuddle after a long day. She's also funny and makes me laugh. In what would otherwise be a lonely one-bedroom apartment all to myself, Rosie is the best little companion who I love being home with and coming home to every day. | | There are endless benefits of having a pet. Below, our team shares how their cats and dogs enhance their lives. | | | | | | | Be well,

| |  | | | | How our pets improve our lives (and well-being!) | | "My pets are my happy place. When I'm stressed or upset, I cuddle close to them and listen to their breathing, which helps regulate my breathing and calm me down. They also listen to me when I need a nonjudgmental ear and provide me with the first unconditional love I've ever felt. | | I've trained one of my dogs to lie down on me whenever I'm on the couch, and I've since learned that this is called deep pressure therapy, which works similarly to a weighted blanket." — Ren Dias, editor | | "My cats are my babies. I've had my eldest for 16 years — over half my life — and my youngest has just turned 3. There's something so comforting about going to sleep with the cats curled up beside me, their little chirps when they're excited, and their yowls when they've 'hunted' their soft toys and want acknowledgement. | | Purring has healing properties, and it really does help calm me when I'm having a bad day and I've got my two on my lap or on either side, their little paws resting on me and rumbling with purrs." — Veronica Zambon, senior market editor | | "I grew up with a few dogs, so life would feel lonely without one! Just petting a stranger's dog can brighten up my day. Even if you're mad at the world, you could never be mad at your pet." — Sarah Matysiak, associate editor |  | | "Kimbap motivates me to do my best every day. I love spoiling her with new treats and toys, so I work hard to do that for her! I saw somewhere that pets are a part of your life, but to them, you're their whole life, so I want to be the best version of myself for her." — Sarah Choi, associate editor | | "Beyond the love that I feel for my dog, which is immense, taking care of her has taught me to be more patient and responsible. It has been a great charactering-building journey. So even when it's frustrating, it's still fulfilling in the end. | | I love being around animals, in general, because they live in the present. They don't ruminate or hold grudges. They are more pure in that way." — Ginger Wojcik, newsletter editor | | "I can't imagine life without my cats! They're cuddly fluff balls that bring me so much joy, comfort, company, and a sense of routine. I especially have a strong bond with my 15-year-old, Leia who has been my bestie since she was a kitten. Through many ups and some very steep downs in the last 15 years, she's been there for me. She probably knows me better than most people! She's an indoor cat, but does go on walks with me and is so well trained at this point I bring her to the vet in just a harness, no carrier. Caring for her has been one of my greatest joys in life." — Naomi Wilde, engagement editor | | 🐾 Over to you: How have your pets improved your life? Email wellnesswire@healthline.com to chime in.
