Even the simple sound of a cat’s purr has measurable benefits. According to Healthline, the frequency of a cat’s purr, between 25 and 150 Hz, is linked to relaxation and may even support physical healing. For Happy Cat franchisees, this means the atmosphere they work in every day naturally fosters tranquility and positivity, benefiting not just their guests, but themselves.

Purr-sonal Spotlight: Belle & Bort!

"Belle and Bort are the sweetest! Today they both enjoyed lots of pets, scratches, and comb time, too! We also played together with lots of different wand toys, and they even got to check out some catnip bubbles. The babies also split a yummy churu snack, though Belle politely declined her half (Bort was ok with this!). I left a festive cat TV show on for them before I left!" -HCH Staff Member Olivia

The Purrfect Business: How Cats Create Happier Spaces and Healthier Owners

Science supports what cat lovers have always known: spending time with cats is genuinely good for both body and mind. A study from Washington State University found that just 10 minutes of interacting with cats or dogs significantly reduced cortisol levels, the hormone associated with stress. Another study published in the Journal of Veterinary Behavior found that petting a cat can lower blood pressure and heart rate, bringing a sense of calm that’s especially valuable when managing the demands of business ownership.

Purr-sonal Spotlight: Larry & Figarow!

"Figaro was first out to say hi this morning....it may have been the churu snack I snuck into their room or maybe the comb which he thoroughly enjoys....I didn't ask too many questions, I just love that he has gotten so brave with his temporary captors 😂😂

Larry spotted the churu too and decided that that was enough of a bribe to get out of bed. We split the snack fairly evenly....I'm pretty sure Figs got a few more licks in than Larry, but what Larry doesn't know won't hurt him 😹

Both boys were feeling extra brave today (+4 bravery on the pants) and had a look-see out of the room. Larry made it to the ramp and decided that that was way too much energy to exert and wandered back to his island getaway. Figs looked into the hallway and called it a day 🥰

We had lots of pets and cuddles, I even got a brief lap snuggle from Figs so my day is completely made. We spent the last little bit of our time together with me laying on the floor while the boys made perfect bookends in their carriers. I gave them a small handful of their brekkie each which they made short work of.

Best Sunday ever! 💜🧡" -HCH Staff Member Leanne

Purr-sonal Spotlight: Honey!

"Honey!! This little lady was very busy today! She was ready to come out as soon as I touched the door k**b 😹 She checked out the lobby first, getting in a good stretch and scratch on the rug before getting combed. We have construction going on a few doors down and she was chatty with the people walking by 🥰 She played so much today. Catching the octopus wand toy and chasing the spring all over. When the timer went off we headed back to her room and she enjoyed a treat 💜🧡" -HCH Staff Member Meg

Purr-sonal Spotlight: Tsuki!

"Tsuki is so sweet, I absolutely adore her! She came out right away to get some attention. The little lady did plenty of laps around her room, eager to get as many pets as she could. She took a few breaks from her cuddle time to play around, attacking her feather toy. Tsuki had an amazing time smelling it, I'm sure it was very interesting!

Purr-sonal Spotlight: Flower, Pluto & Toby!

"Flower, Pluto, and Toby were so much fun to hang out with today!! They were such balls of energy! All three boys were very friendly and came up to greet me at the door. I was so excited to see flower being more adventurous, I think it’s safe to say he’s loving the room! I offered these three many pets and cuddles which they all adored, Pluto especially loved them since he laid in my lap for a while. I offered them a few different wand toys and they loved all of them! All three would excitedly race to catch it and hop in the air as well. I turned on the tv for them to watch and Flower was very eager to catch the squirrels and birds! Pluto's interest was slighting peaked but overall he preferred relaxing on his shelf while Pluto rolled around playing with a wand toy. Overall these three were so much fun to hang out with and I always love playing with these cuties!! :)" -HCH Staff Member Gloria
