Pets and Seniors
Recent studies indicate that seniors who own pets, live longer, experience better health and enjoy life much more than the senior who has no pet companionship. Results show that pet owners often experience a decrease in temperature, stress level, and even blood pressure! In addition to this, pets can provide joy, entertainment, love and security and even calm the pet owner. Pets love you for being you — not “only” for the treats you shell out frequently — they are forgiving, loyal and love you unconditionally.
