Human: I've heard that there are some health benefits to having pets. Which are the best pets to have? Assistant: 
The answer depends on your individual lifestyle and budget, but generally speaking, cats and dogs are both great choices for pets. Cats require minimal maintenance and can be relatively low-maintenance as they tend to stay indoors most of the time. Dogs, however, need more attention and exercise than cats do. They also require a certain amount of space in order to move around comfortably, so they may not be suitable for people living in small apartments or condos.
