A new study published in the CABI journal Human-Animal Interactions suggests that companion animals—including dogs, cats, fish and birds—do not significantly benefit the emotional health of owners with severe mental illness.

Paper: https://www.cabidigitallibrary.org/doi/10.1079/hai.2023.0027

    Have you even opened the link? It’s in the freaking title, the study is about the impact on mentally ill people, and whether having a pet helps (apparently it doesn’t, but the sample size is quite small, so idk). Nothing to do with how animals are treated.

                @stappern The fact that it’s completely unrelated to what was posted. Get some help. You clearly need it.

                “Have you even opened the link? It’s in the freaking title, the study is about the impact on mentally ill people, and whether having a pet helps (apparently it doesn’t, but the sample size is quite small, so idk). Nothing to do with how animals are treated.”

                Funny how you ignored what was said to you. Almost like you’re a fucking lunatic.
