The Human Animal Bond Research Institute (HABRI) and MetLife Pet
Insurance Solutions LLC (“MetLife Pet”), one of the world’s leading
financial services companies, today announced a collaboration to
advance their shared goal of strengthening the human-animal bond
through research, education and advocacy.
“At MetLife Pet Insurance, we are focused on ensuring all pet
parents’ have access to veterinary resources so they can
confidently care for their pets and that our four-legged family
members receive the care they need,” said Brian Jorgensen, CEO of
MetLife Pet Insurance. “We are committed to protecting and
supporting the relationship between people and their pets, which is
in complete alignment with the mission of the Human Animal Bond
Research Institute.”
Scientific research demonstrates that having pets in our lives
can lead to better physical and mental health for people of all
ages. Importantly, the more pet owners learn about scientific
research on the benefits of the human-animal bond, the more likely
they are to take positive action including better pet care and more
regular veterinary visits.
MetLife Pet will join with HABRI to fund impactful research that
documents the positive benefits of companion animals for human
health and advocate for policy solutions that support pet owners
and help increase access to veterinary care.
“MetLife Pet Insurance not only recognizes the importance of the
pets in our lives, they are also working to preserve the bond for
countless families around the country,” said Steven Feldman,
President of HABRI. “By collaborating with HABRI, MetLife Pet
Insurance is taking their support for the human-animal bond to the
next level by working together to create a more pet-friendly
society.”
