As Jules Verne said, cats come into our homes to teach us love.
Scientific facts
Students of the Faculty of Biology of Volgograd State University agree with the classic and have already proven that:
- cat purring normalizes human heart rate, evens out blood pressure, and improves electrocardiogram,
- purring at a frequency of 50-150 Hz has a therapeutic effect and helps with pain syndromes.
American scientists (Jessica Gall Myrick's group) studied the effect of cat pictures on the Internet. Experts proved that photos of fluffy cuties:
- help cope with stress,
- act as digital emotional therapy,
- reduce the risk of depression.
Can you imagine the wonders cat pictures do? Believe me, if you interact with a cutie live, the effect will be better.
Why you need a homeless cat
Seeing an unhappy animal with signs of a past well-fed life at a bus stop, try to pet it. If the cat willingly approaches a person, rubs against legs, purrs, and shows a desire to go with you to the ends of the earth, stop. Listen to your heart.
An adult cat, fallen from a window, abandoned on the street, or lost, will become a loyal friend and grateful pet, and you will receive:
- a free pacemaker with adjustable purring intensity,
- an additional "plus" in karma after saving a living creature from dogs, hooligans, and the possibility of being hit by a car,
- a loyal friend and grateful listener.
You can play with a cat, talk to it, warm your palms in its soft fur while waiting for the central heating to turn on.
What to do when the cat is home
First, take it to the vet, then buy a litter box, bowl, and cat food.
The vet will tell you how old the pet is, what health problems it has. At the same time, the specialist will check if the animal has a chip or other identification marks. In this case, you can return the kitten to its owner, earning a couple more "pluses" in karma or a very real gratitude in the form of a "chocolate bar" or monetary reward.
Wash the cat, feed it, help it remember where the litter box is.
Man, as one of the characters in Gorky's play "The Lower Depths" said, that sounds proud. Let's recall the continuation of this monologue. To be a capital-M Man, one must do good and see how the world around changes for the better.
