There's A Link Between Cat Ownership And SchizophreniaGrowing up with a family cat is a significant if improbable commonality among people who develop schizophrenia."Cat ownership in childhood has now been reported in three studies to be significantly more common in families in which the child is later diagnosed with schizophrenia or another serious mental illness," wrote the researchers behind a new study published in the journal Schizophrenia Research.

It's also important to note that the overall instance of schizophrenia is low.Owning a cat comes with plenty of benefits. According to a 2008 study from researchers at the University of Minnesota's Stroke Institute, cat owners are 30 percent less likely to die of a heart attack. Plus, spending time with pets eases feelings of loneliness, according to the CDC.
