5 reasons why pets can keep you young (a humorous take)

  1. Cute and cuddly

    Sense of touch can stimulate a positive response. I feel happy when I touch soft pets like dogs and animals. It also feels comforting.

  2. Funny

    Pets can keep you on your toes. They can tort their bodies funny, watch TV, etc. Laughing can help keep the wrinkles away.

  3. Companionship

    Just as human friendships can be rewarding, so can having pets. True, they cannot speak, but it is nice to see them wag their tails when you are home. You can also build a relationship with them through training and doing activities together.
