*The Gift That Just Keeps Giving*

There are many benefits to owning an animal, rescue or not.  The top three reasons why I feel everyone should have an animal are as follow.  The first reason is that they bring a lot of joy to a person’s life.  No matter what kind of day you have had (good, bad, depressing, etc.), spending five seconds with them will always make it better.  It has also been proven that people with animals tend to be happier and live longer lives because of the joy their pets bring them.  The second reason I think everyone should own an animal is because they love you unconditionally.  No matter what you have done (past or present, good or bad), they do not care.  As long as you are nice to them and take care of them, you can do no wrong.  The last top reason everyone should have a pet is because they benefit your health.  Studies have been done that shows people with pets are less likely to suffer from depression, anxiety, stress, high blood pressure, and many others. Studies have also shown that kids that have pets in their homes are more likely to have higher self-confidence than children without pets.  So when you are making a decision on whether or not you should get a pet, remember that you will no only be helping them by giving them a loving home, but they will also be helping you mentally and physically.
