| Emotional Well-being
During the pandemic, many people, like Irina and Karin, adopted pets to cope with loneliness and emotional challenges. A survey by ARPAC found that 17% of dog owners and 16% of cat owners got a pet during the emergency state, driven by emotional factors. Pets provide practical benefits like reducing stress hormones and offering unconditional love, which can help confront the common fear of death. Biologist Alexandru Stermin from Babeș-Bolyai University explains that pets serve as social beings that mirror our emotions and help us extend ourselves during crises. As people age, the relationship with pets deepens, providing comfort against the ever-present fear of death, especially during the pandemic.
