  • Studies have shown that cats have better memories than dogs, monkeys or orangutans.
  • Nearly 94 percent of pet owners say their animal pal makes them smile more than once a day.
  • According to the American Veterinary Medical Association, the average visit to a vet costs $135 for dogs and $112 for cats.
