    Interactions with animals, including cats, is believed to influence human health. However, studies that investigate the psychological and physiological effects of interacting with cats in their household environment are limited. In this remote study, 32 cat owners in Japan participated from June to October 2021. They completed two tasks, each on separate days in their homes: one simulating daily cat communication (Interaction condition) and another with no interactions (Rest condition). We quantified emotions (arousal level and pleasure level) before and after each condition using the Two-Dimensional Mood Scale Short-term as well as salivary cortisol and oxytocin levels of owners using enzyme-linked immune-sorbent assay. Autonomic nervous activity (sympathetic and parasympathetic) was also quantified by heart rate variability analysis. The free interaction with cats decreased emotional arousal and parasympathetic activity, and lead to increased heart rates in owners. There was a positive correlation between heart rate and cortisol concentration, and between cortisol and oxytocin concentration. Furthermore, the frequency of petting the cats was negatively correlated with the rate of change in the parasympathetic activity. In contrast, the parasympathetic nerves in the owners were activated under the Rest condition. Hence, the mechanism of health-enhancing effects of cat ownership includes an arousing effect, in contrast to the previously proposed stress-reduction effect. This result can aid in future developments in cat–human relationship studies. However, a detailed study with a larger sample size is needed to draw definite conclusions.

    「健康」その維持と向上は私達にとって常に高い関心事である。しかし、心身ともに健やかな状況と環境を日常的に整えることは困難な場合も多い。一方、コンパニオン・アニマルとの生活が我々の健康維持に役立っている可能性は高い。傍らに居てくれるイヌやネコたちは、知らず知らずのうちに我々のストレスを和らげている。実際、イヌとの関わりによるこうした健康効果はこれまで多々報告されてきた。ネコの飼育率は、日本において緩やかに増えつつあるが、このネコたちも健康に大きな影響をもつ。イヌとネコではその行動特性は大きく異なり、このことが、ネコ、そしてその飼い主を対象とした研究を遥かに困難にさせている一方で、いわゆるネコ派の方々はその行動特性を特段好み、そしてまさにその行動特性が人に多様な刺激を与えている可能性がある。動物との関わりによる健康効果は、リラックス感を生むとともに適度な刺激を与え、心身のバランスをもたらしていると考えられる。
