Play is not just fun — it’s essential to your pet’s happiness and mental health. Dogs thrive when they bond with their humans through play. The same applies to cats, who may require less playtime, but reap the same benefits that their canine counterparts do. In both animals, mental and physical enrichment contribute to weight maintenance, alleviate boredom-related (mis)behaviors, play Into their instincts (such as chasing or pouncing), and provide an instant mood lift.
