Started just a couple of years ago, in April of 2022, the ‘Animals Going Goblin Mode’ account has already amassed over 1.3 million followers, which is not that difficult to believe considering how popular animal content is nowadays.In addition to uploading animal-related content on their personal accounts, people have started to create separate accounts for their critters, too, consequently expanding the number of sources of pictures of grumpy cats and videos of dogs stomping their feet.Data suggeststhat roughly one-third of Americans have a separate social media account for their critter, which is all the better for the rest of us, I’d say.

Half of the people who create social media accounts for their pets reportedly admit that the latter receive more attention online than they do themselves. But a similar number of humans say that they care for the likes from their pet posts more than the likes for those of their own, which calls for an assumption that people probably don’t mind the adorable creatures getting more praise and attention than they do.

There is arguably no one reason why animal content is so popular online; but bearing in mind thenumerous benefitsowning a pet brings, it makes sense that looking at them through a screen can be somewhat comforting, too.

“Petting, holding, or cuddling an animal increases the levels of serotonin and dopamine in our bodies, which are feel-good, calming brain chemicals,” she wrote inPsychology Today. “As a result of these positive chemical changes, our feelings of depression and loneliness may be reduced while our self-esteem and happiness may increase.”

The expert pointed out that in addition to the better mood animals put us in, there are also physical benefits, such as reduced blood pressure, slowed heart rate, and decreased levels of the stress hormone, too much of which can lead to heart problems.

According to Dr. Miller,owning a dogis especially therapeutic. In addition to the aforementioned benefits interacting with any animal brings, dogs get their owners out of the house on a daily basis, whether they like it or not. This results in not only increased physical activity—which we all know is good for us, despite how lazy we often feel to take part in it—but in minimized isolation, too, and maybe even a conversation or two with fellow dog walkers met along the way.

Research fromSky Mobilefound that animal content is the most smile-inducing social media content there is. That means that whenever you see someone smiling at their phone, chances are it’s a cat video rather than a message from a special someone.

And these don’t just feel good, science shows these can add up – for example helping us be more open to others, more flexible in our thinking, better at creative problem solving.”
