Pisicile sunt asociate cu un nivel mai ridicat de fericire. Ce au descoperit cercetătorii după un studiu desfășurat în 93 de țări
A recent study across 93 countries found a correlation between higher cat density and national happiness levels, while also noting lower exposure to the Toxoplasma gondii parasite in countries with more cats. Researchers emphasize that these findings indicate associations at a national level and do not prove that owning a cat directly increases happiness. The study suggests that wealth and pet care conditions may influence these results, as wealthier nations tend to have better veterinary care and indoor cats, reducing parasite exposure. The research highlights the need for further investigation into the relationship between pet ownership and well-being, considering various socio-economic factors.
