Gray rainy cold days are purrfect to embrace the power of
petting. Scientists report that people who pet their cats experience an
increase in Theta waves, a brain wave pattern that shows a reduction in

"feel good" hormones. Our feline friends bring sunshine into
our lives regardless of what the weather is so let's enjoy and nurture them.
