AbstractA telephone survey of a national probability sample of U.S. adults 21 to 64 years old contrasts the demographic characteristics of 816 pet owners and 448 non-owners residing in 1,300 households from 47 states and the District of Columbia.Significant differences between owners and non-owners were found to relate to age groups, number of people and number of children in the household, race, marital status, income, rural/urban residence, and occupational prestige level. No association was detected between pet ownership and education, resident region of the country, or gender. |
