Pet onwership has a beneficial effect on family harmony. Research shows families spend a lot more time interacting after the acquisition of a pet. Pets provide a focus for fun activities and friendly conversation. The relaxation and relief from stress also contribute health benefits for parents. Pet onwers have a decreased risk of cardiovascular disease, fewer minor illness and complaints, and visit the doctor less than their 'petless' counterparts.
Owning a cat can be a delightful family experience. Children learn to interact with and take responsibility for the health and well-being of the cat. However, while the onwership of a cat may have enormous benefit for the child, parents need to teach children how to behave around cat so they can have a safe and enjoyable relationship.
