Are animals good for introverts?
Animals offer a kind of companionship that feeds an introvert’s gentle soul like nothing else.

Can Pets help introverts socialize with others?
Believe it or not, there are times when introverts actually want to socialize with others. Unfortunately, figuring out how to get a meaningful conversation going can be quite tricky for us “quiet ones.” The good news is your pet can be a great jumping-off point, especially when the other person likes animals, too.
Why do introverts need more time for themselves?
In a world where we value social engagement above alone time, the introvert is paving the way to place a higher value on taking care of ourselves. Introverts need alone time to feel sane, to recharge, to restore. They feel depleted when in constant engagement, so they learn to take time out for themselves.
