If you have a pet, whether it be dogs, cats, birds, hamsters or even lizards, one of the hardest thing to do everyday has got to be leaving them when you go to work. If only we can bring our pets to work amirite?
Worse, if you live alone with your pets, the thought of leaving your cuddly furry best friend home alone must be daunting. Well, while you’re away from home, why not let your pets listen to some of their favourite music and podcasts?
Did you know that the music streaming paltform Spotify has playlists that are automatically created based on their subcribers’ own musical tastes and the species of their pets?
Furthermore, Spotify even have a podcast titled “My Dog’s Favourite Podcast” which was crafted by animal experts and said to be able to h-elp alleviate the stress of pets! The podcast runs in two 5 hours stretches and features reassuring human voices saying stuff like “you’re a good boy” etc, relaxing music and ambient sounds.
Launched by Spotify back in January this year, it was created after the company made a study regarding how pet owners use music with their pets.
Here are some of their findings:
- 71% of pet owners played music for their pets.
- 8 in 10 pet owners believe their pets like music.
- The most popular genre that pets seem to like is classical and soft rock!
- 69% of owners sing to their pets.
- 57% of owners dance with their pet.
- Almost 1 in 5 pet owners named their pets after musicians. Most popular names are Bob Marley, Elvis and Freddie Mercury.
Woah, those are some really cool and cute facts! 
So if you leave your pets at home when you go to work, make sure to play some music to them via Spotify. You can set up the Spotify Pet Playlists through this link here.
