Is anything wrong with cuddling up with your furry pet these cold winter nights? Can this affect the pet owner's health?

No, nothing wrong with it at all. My little Sassafrass (pictured below) has been my bed buddy for the past 13 years, and I definitely don't sleep as well when she's not there. Now, if you have a big dog that takes up too much room on the bed, well, it might be a problem for you, but snuggling up with our fuzzy friends is great.(That is, as long as they haven't eaten something that creates unwelcome fumes.

Sassy may be small but ... yeah, wow. ).

Absolutely nothing wrong with it! It's great for your mental health (and for keeping warm! ) If you have an allergy to pet dandruff, you may experience worse symptoms by sleeping with them.

Other than that, make sure they don't have fleas or ticks, and you should be fine.

IN merry old England, you could rent a cat to keep your feet warm at any inn. Today; PACC Patient Assistant Care Cats...save lives. Cats bring down blood pressure, reduce the risk of heart attacks and strokes.

Cut the use of drugs and sometimes do-away with drugs in total. ANGEL a sweet Persian, has saved his mistress life three times. Angel can smell the drop in blood sugar level, and when his mistress goes into diabetic dropsy; Angel will stand on her chest or back and kneed her and loudly and cry until she rouses to take her insulin.

ANGEL has been neutered; with the ignorant hysteria of indiscriminately neutering animals before checking their DNA to see which ones have this amazing ability to save human life and prolong the lives of elders who are much happier and live longer, and healthier with an animal to care for. Over 500 thousand of these precious life-givers are put to death every week, in one state alone. Cats who end the need for anti-depressants which cause suicides.

If you bathe your cat twice a month you will have no cat dander to react to. Cats like to be kept clean. Cats do fear water, they were deliberately drowned by humans for centuries (gene memory).

You must be very gentle and speak reassuring words to bathe any cat. They learn to trust you. Cats designed by mother nature to sleep with you, keep you warm, love you tenderly, and to prolong your life with soft vibrating purrrrrrs which drop your blood pressure.

Men who love cats are far better lovers...cats are very feminine little creatures. Exact size and feel of newborn infants.

I think it's good for a pet owner's health, I think it calms the nerves.

The truth is that thousands of people contract diseases from their pets each year. A very recent study conducted for the Center for Disease Control (CDC) in Atlanta (America's leading institution in disease transmission) will be published in their February issue of "Emerging Infectious Diseases". The researchers included studies of a nine year old boy who developed plague, an out break ot 79 cases of salmonella, a woman who died of septic shock and a man who died from infection, as well as 20,000 annual cases of "cat scratch fever" which ..."can cause severe problems, including swelling of the lymph nodes and sometimes lethal damage to the liver, kidney and spleen of humans."

Ignoring the facts becaue you have not yet contracted a disease or because sleeping with your pet is comforting or cute seems short sighted and unwise. One of the researchers made a sensible statement that we should all take to heart: “I think pets can be very nice in the home environment, but certainly, they don’t belong on the bed,� accessrx.com/blog/current-health-news/pe..." rel="nofollow">accessrx.com/blog/current-health-news/pe....

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
