A new study suggests that cat owners may be healthier than their canine loving counterparts.

The study conducted by the University of Minnesota shows that owning a cat may not only be good for a person's peace of mind, but it could also be good for the heart.

The study found that owning a dog is also good for your heart, but not as good as owning a cat.

The study appeared in the Journal of Vascular and Interventional Neurology.
