Studies show that being in close contact with your cat can increase your immune system. When a person is in close contact with their cat's dander, it can create immunity to different types of allergens by building up a tolerance. Research has found that hugging your feline friend is extremely effective at helping to lessen symptoms associated with major illnesses, helps with loneliness, depression, anxiety, and stress.
