According to SWNS, OnePoll conducted a survey on behalf of Fresh Step litter to see how obsessed cat owners are with their pets. Not surprisingly, it turns out cat owners are fascinated by their felines.
41% of those polled said they have a framed photo of their cat or another beloved feline in their home. Overall, 84% of cat owners polled said they see their feline as a family member, with some routinely buying gifts for their cats.
60% of the cat owners polled said their cats are loyal and 59% said their purr-fect pets snuggle right up to them, even though felines are often unfairly labeled as aloof.
Over three-quarters of the owners polled for this survey said they see talking to their cat as a form of therapy, one that has helped them get through tough times like a move to a new city, a new job or a personal loss. The love these owners feel from their felines makes the pets their preferred hang out buddies.66% those polled admitted they rather spend time snuggling with their cat over hanging out with their human friends.
