Pet Lovers Unite! 5 Reasons to Date or Marry a Pet Lover
We all have certain qualities that we’d prefer in a potential mate. For some, good looks or a healthy lifestyle top the list, while others set the bar at basic hygiene or owning a vehicle.
Your friends at Leon Valley Veterinary Hospital have a suggestion for all of our loyal readers who are currently looking for that special someone: find a pet lover!
Whether you are the proud owner of a pet or not, finding a partner who lives with and loves a furry friend can have a positive impact on your life and relationship.
You’re in Good Company with a Pet Lover
Most pet lovers automatically come equipped with a long list of special qualities that can make for a wonderful partner or spouse. Check it out!
- Pet lovers are responsible – Anyone who has a little (or big) fur baby who relies on them is bound to have extensive experience when it comes to caring for another creature. Having to feed, walk, bathe, and play with a pet, not to mention coming up with the money to properly care for their fur friend, are some of the cornerstones of responsibility.
- Pet lovers are playful – Whether they live with a dog, cat, guinea pig, cockatiel, or bearded dragon, pet owners are probably spending at least part of each day playing and having fun with little sweeties.
- Pet lovers are healthy – It has been scientifically established that pet owners are generally healthier and happier than non-pet owners. Living with a pet can lead to lowered blood pressure, less stress, and a reduction in depression, all of which are excellent qualities in a potential mate.
- Pet lovers are affectionate – Have you ever met a pet owner who didn’t love to cuddle with his or her pet? We haven’t either. Most pet owners are automatically affectionate with their pets, regardless of species, a quality that can easily transfer over to a relationship.
- Pet lovers are committed – Owning a pet requires patience, loyalty, and a commitment to being there for the pet throughout his or her entire life. Pet lovers are often required to put their pets’ well-being above their own, an admirable quality that takes time and patience to cultivate.
