OnePoll surveyed 2,000 American pet owners and say the results show that seven out of ten people felt that sharing their bed with their dog or cat helped them sleep better at night. It’s not a new idea; previous research suggests that sharing your bed with a pet makes you feel more comfortable and secure.
Researchers at the Mayo Clinic did their own study and say that ‘There can be significant psychological comfort in having your pet close by, which can help both initiate and maintain sleep.’ As usual, scientists say that more research is needed.
