Couples turn to cats
As modern couples are beginning to wait until later on in life to have children, it appears that cats are taking the place of babies in their owners' lives.
A survey carried out to celebrate the launch of new website, Cats vs Dogs, found that four in 10 cat owners treat their new feline friend like a baby.
Our affection doesn't stop there, however, as 74 per cent of those to take part in the survey admitted to trusting their cat more than their partner, best friend or family.
One in five owners said they would genuinely give their cat the kiss of life if necessary and 34 per cent even felt they had a "psychic connection" with their cat.
It appears that such devotion from the nation's cat owners could be leading to disgruntled partners, with a third of people saying their partner is jealous of their relationship with their cat.
Zoetis has launched a new survey to identify management techniques for Equine Herpes Virus (EHV).
