Are you the type of person who can’t pass by a cat on the street without saying hello and petting their little head? Do you exclaim “Awww!” every time a puppy passes by you with their owner? And are you obsessed with the little birds that hang out on your balcony? If you’re an animal lover, I’m right there with you.

And according to Calmerry, there are a few reasons why some of us just can’t get enough of our furry friends. When it comes to our pets in particular, Calmerry notes that we have symbiotic relationships with them. Because of this, we both grow strong emotional attachments to one another.

As far as why some people even prefer animals over humans, Calmerry points out that we tend to perceive them as innocent and defenseless. We see them as creatures who need us to feed, protect and love them, so we can’t help but have a soft spot for them.

Plus, our relationships with them are relatively simple. Once we learn how to understand their body language, we never have to worry about them talking about us behind our backs or betraying us. We know they’ll always be loyal and waiting for us when we return home.

If you’re a pet owner, I’m sure you know the benefits of having a pet all too well. But if you don’t have a furry friend, you might want to consider getting one if you’re looking for a companion who can help improve your self-esteem, reduce your stress and encourage you to live a healthier lifestyle. Dogs, in particular, require you to get out of the house multiple times a day and go on walks or run around with them in parks. This can do wonders for your mental health!

Meanwhile, if you’re having a tough day, seeing your cat do something hilarious or having a warm kitty curl up in your lap can instantly change your mood. How can you be upset when a precious little creature comes and purrs on your chest? It’s amazing how much animals can calm us down and remind us that we are loved, even if they can’t tell us with their words.

While we’ll probably never know for sure if most animals have a sense of humor, there’s no question that they often display behavior that’s hilarious to humans. Beki Hooper, PhD, wrote a piece for Psychology Today explaining how animals often play with one another, and she shared that rats have been known to play hide and seek. Meanwhile, even insects like bumble bees seem to enjoy playing games with one another.

Despite the fact that your cats can’t use the internet and have no idea what memes are, it’s very possible that if they could understand them, they’d be laughing their little heads off at this list. After all, who doesn’t like to have fun? Dr. Hooper notes that elephants, dolphins, octopuses, primates and more have been known to engage in play. So I think it’s safe to say that these little comedians would enjoy this list!
