For all my pet lover followers, let's not act like we haven't from time to time, scrolled through Instagram under hashtags related to anything furry and cute, and indulged ourselves in our guilty pleasure of cute animal pictures/ videos.
It's okay, acceptance is the first step to recovery
but I digress,
What I'm really here to discuss is joining the movement and sharing your pet with the cyber world.
We want to see your cute pet picures/videos as much as you want to see ours; so it's only fair to return the favor.
If that isn't incentive enough, allow me to dive into the benefits of creating an Instagram account for your adorable fuzzballs.
1. It helps with anxiety
It's a known fact that exposure to that level of cuteness only a precious floof can provide, helps lower stress and anxiety levels. If you contribute to the cause, your pet could be the reason someone, other than you of course, smiles.
2. On the same note, it has been proven to increase productivity
According to a new study lead by Nittono for Hiroshima University, looking at videos of floofs of all kind can liven up your mood enough to increase motivation., improving productivity levels
so if you're a decent human being that cares about the well-being of others, please, let us see your pets.
3. It allows you to be your weird animal loving self
I don't know about you but I used to be embarrassed to have people see all of the animals on my Instagram feed but that all changed when I created an Instagram for my loaf of bread, Cake. She is my pride and joy, my furr-child.
I no longer had to hide my love for cute furr-babies because,
"What? I had to follow other accounts. It's called MUTUAL SUPPORT, MOM.
4. Do you really need a valid reason to take more pictures of your babies?
You may feel like you are annoying your friends with the massive amounts of squeal-inducing pictures you have of your shnookums but you just can't stop the constant flow of adorableness. It's an addiction, I feel you.
Or maybe you have no shame, like me, in that case, POST ON.
Nevertheless,
5. Your furr-baby deserves a cyber shrine
A page for the public eye, dedicated to all of the times they're being their cute self, which is all of the time.
You could shamelessly post as many times as you want a day, and guess what? Your followers will LOVE it.
6. Your beautiful toe-bean purr-buds could end up on a funny pet video
If one of your videos makes its way to the right people. Millions of fellow pet-lovers could also be a witness to your babycakes grace.
do you really think that is going to happen if you only post a few pictures a month on your personal page?
I wouldn't chance it.
At the end of the day, it's in all of our best interests, for you to join the movement by allowing your pet to join Instagram.
If words don't persuade you, allow me to show you.
How could you say no to that snooter?
Did I need a cat playing piano in my life? The answer is:
Yes, yes I did need a cat playing the piano in my life.
Would you just look at those teefers!?
