International Cat Day
-- It is not hard to see why our little feline friends hold such a special place in our affections. Funny cat videos, memes and cute pictures of cats are some of the most viewed content online, which just confirms our obsession with the furry things. While research shows watching funny cat videos can boost a person's energy and create positive emotions, owning a cat can also be good for your heart. Petting a cat is said to reduce stress levels, and with people having such hectic lives, they can be an easier and less demanding choice of a pet than owning a dog. Source
