Feline Friends at Central State University

Why Cats are the Perfect Campus Companions

As students, we all know that college life can be overwhelming. Between classes, assignments, and extracurricular activities, it's easy to feel stressed and anxious. But what if I told you there's a way to reduce those feelings of anxiety and increase your overall well-being? Enter: cats! At Central State University, our feline friends are an integral part of campus life, providing comfort, companionship, and even stress relief. Whether it's cuddling with a cat in the library or simply watching them play, these adorable creatures have a way of melting away our worries and concerns.

The Benefits of Cat Therapy

Research has shown that simply petting a cat can lower your blood pressure, reduce stress hormones, and even boost your mood! And it's not just about the physical benefits - interacting with cats has also been known to increase feelings of empathy and compassion. At Central State University, we're committed to providing our students with access to these incredible animals, because we believe that mental health is just as important as academic success.

Getting Involved: How You Can Help

So how can you get involved with our campus cat program? First and foremost, we encourage all students to come visit us at the Cat Cafe and spend some quality time with our feline friends. But if you're interested in taking it a step further, we also offer volunteer opportunities for those who want to help care for our cats. From feeding and grooming to socialization and playtime, there's something for everyone! And as a thank you, all volunteers will receive exclusive Cat Cafe merchandise and discounts.
