Cat people have 40% less risk of heart attack.*
Cat people are also overrepresented cohorts of wealthy people and women, two cohorts who have a much lower risk of heart attack than the most at risk cohort of poor men.
So what you are saying is the more cats I get the richer I will be?
Yes that's exactly how causation and correlation work, go for it!
And more feminine
You don't have to convince me, I was already sold.
But I'll get cat hair on my programmer socks!
But I still have lots of cats, right?
Scientists have discovered that having more cats reduces the risk of heart attacks and increases wealth with no upper limit*
*study sponsored by toxoplasmosis foundation
Correlation and Causation are just fancy-pantsy words used by experts to lie to us common folk!
No but cats are correlated with wealth, I’m not implying any sort of causation, unlike the post lol.
Because they’re famously expensive to keep?
Gotta sell them all
Isn't it also that pet owners in general have better health?
Possibly. It would make sense, people with poor health who tend to also be poorer financially are less likely to have the ability to take care of a pet.
