It’s cozy where there are cats. Their cuddliness, their fluffy fur, and their ability to sleep anywhere contribute just as much to creating a cozy atmosphere as the purring of the little house lions.
Cat Purring & Its Calming Effect
When cats purr, they are usually fine and content. The frequency of the noise, the sound, and the vibration of the cat radiate a calm that can be transferred not only to other animals but also to people. In addition to various studies that prove this, anyone who has ever had a purring cat on their lap would probably confirm this.
In addition to relieving everyday stress, cat purring is also said to be able to improve other ailments, such as sleep disorders, high blood pressure, and perhaps much more.
Can Purring Even Have a Healing Effect?
For cats, purring is not only a sign of happiness but also has an important function for their body. A cat’s purr produces a frequency of 22 to 30 Hertz, and researchers have found that this has a beneficial effect on animals.
Anyone who has ever wondered why their pet purrs when they are stressed, ill, or injured can assume that it is mobilizing its self-healing powers: purring is even said to be able to heal broken bones more quickly and in general strengthen bone structure. Researchers suspect that purring could even have the same positive effect on the healing process in humans. To prove that, they’re trying to back it up with studies.
