First of all, we specify what is meant by sleep in order to understand in its entirety the experiment carried out by researchers at the Mayo Clinic College of Medicine in Scottsdale (United States).

The sleep it is the state and period of physical-psychic rest characterized by the total or partial suspension of consciousness and will.

Now, after this brief explanation, let's illustrate the aforementioned experiment. The researchers looked at 150 people who own animals. They were asked how their sleep was and if their pets slept with them. 56% of the participants said they allow their pet to sleep with them.

Only 20% said they are awakened by their pets during the night. On the other hand, 41% claimed that sleeping with their pet on the bed contributes to a more relaxed sleep. A fact that we can consider astonishing.

Even more amazing is that those who sleep with their cat have a more peaceful and deep sleep given their ability to instill tranquility. And not only; being the sleep of the cat less profound than that of the dog and man, he is able to convey a sense of protection And safety.

In fact, the cat is always alert and attentive to any variation of the surrounding environment and is able to perceive noises and sounds emitted from great distances. All these series of features allow the owner to sleep in total relaxation and safety. Almost as if he perceives that he is protected from the surrounding dangers.

So it is also thanks to them that in the morning we wake up calm and ready to start a new day in harmony.
