Many studies have been done which links stress reduction, improving blood pressure and increased dopamin and serotonin levels in some people just by petting or playing with dogs and cats over a period of time.

Or just ask yourself, are you just happier when your cat is purring or your doggy is jumping for joy when your come through the front door after work.
