Most of us treat our pets better than we treat ourselves

Did you know this week is Pet Appreciation Week? I don't know about you, but pet appreciation week is every week in my house!

94% of pet owners in a new poll conducted by One Poll for Stella and Chewy's said they try to make their pets feel appreciated on a regular basis. On top of that, two-thirds feel like they treat their pet better than they treat themselves. Here are the top ten ways we show our pets some love from SWNS Digital:


1.  Playing with them.

2.  Telling them, "good boy" or "good girl."

3.  Feeding them the food they like, even if it's expensive.

4.  Making sure their food is also healthy.

5.  Always having their favorite treats on hand.

6.  Saying "I love you."

7.  Making sure they have a nice bed or sleeping space.

8.  Buying them new toys.

9.  Letting them sleep in bed with us.

10. Taking them to the vet for regular checkups. (I guess it's because we don't take ourselves in for regular check-ups?)
