New research shows that people watch cat videos 2-3 times a week. If you think it's a total waste of time - well, it's not.

Most people who watch and like cat videos own a cat, are shy and spend lots of time online. But wait! It's actually good for you. Most people reported feeling more energetic, happier and even less stressed after watching a video of a cat. Even if they did feel a little guilty becuse they were suppose to be doing something else. The researcher called it digital pet therapy.

So go ahead and splurge on that kitty video. You can get that report to the boss later.
