Abantu abafuna ukuhlala kahle njengoba bekhula bangase bafune ukuthola isilwane esifuywayo, ngokusho kwedatha entsha evela eNyuvesi yaseMichigan National Poll on Healthy Aging.

Ocwaningweni, abacwaningi benze inhlolovo mayelana nabantu abadala base-US abangaba ngu-2,000 kusukela eminyakeni engu-50 kuye kwengama-80. Amaphesenti angamashumi amahlanu nanhlanu athi anesilwane esifuywayo okungenani esisodwa. Izinja kwakuyizilwane ezifuywayo ezivame kakhulu, zilandelwa amakati nezilwane ezincane, njengezinyoni nama-hamster. Kodwa noma ngabe hlobo luni lwesilwane, iningi labanikazi lathi izilwane ezifuywayo zandisa impilo yabo engokwengqondo nengokomzimba.

Cishe u-90% wabanikazi bezilwane ezifuywayo abadala bathi izilwane zabo zibasize bajabulele ukuphila futhi bazizwe bethandwa; cishe ama-80% athi izilwane ezifuywayo zinciphise ukucindezeleka; futhi cishe izingxenye ezintathu kwezine zathi abangani babo abanoboya banikeze umuzwa wenhloso, ngokusho kwe-poll. Ngaphezu kwalokho, u-64% wabanikazi bezilwane ezifuywayo - kanye no-78% wabanikazi bezinja - bathi izilwane ezifuywayo zibasize ukuthi bahlale bematasa. Amaphesenti angu-60 nawo athi izilwane ezifuywayo zabasiza ukuba babhekane nezinkinga zempilo engokomzimba nengokomzwelo.

Abantu babike izithiyo ezimbalwa kubunikazi bezilwane ezifuywayo, okuhlanganisa nobunzima bokuhamba noma ukuphuma endlini (54%) kanye nezinkinga zezimali (18%). Amaphesenti ayisithupha abanikazi bezilwane ezifuywayo bathi bangawa noma bazilimaze ngenxa yokuba nesilwane esifuywayo - okuhambisana nocwaningo lwakamuva oluthola amazinga akhuphukayo okuphuka phakathi kwabanikazi bezinja asebekhulile. Amaphesenti ayishumi nanhlanu abanikazi bezilwane ezifuywayo, okuhlanganisa no-26% walabo abathi banempilo enhle noma ebuthaka, bathi impilo yezilwane ezifuywayo ibaluleke kakhulu kuneyabo.

Noma kunjalo, ucwaningo oluningi luye lwabonisa ukuthi cishe noma ubani angazuza esifuyweni sakhe, njengoba izilwane zingehlisa ukucindezeleka, zinciphise izimpawu zokucindezeleka nokukhathazeka futhi zikhuthaze ukuvivinya umzimba. Inhlolovo entsha iphakamisa ukuthi ubunikazi bezilwane ezifuywayo bungaba nomthelela ikakhulukazi kubantu abadala, uma kubhekwa indlela isizungu esivame ngayo kanye nokuhlukaniswa nabantu kuleli qembu lobudala.

Ukusekelwa komphakathi kwabantu kuza nenqwaba yezinzuzo zezempilo - ukucindezeleka okuncane, amazinga aphansi esifo esingelapheki nokunye okwengeziwe - futhi ucwaningo lubonisa ukuthi ukusebenzelana nezilwane ezifuywayo kungaletha izinzuzo eziningi ezifanayo. (Izilwane zingase zisebenze ngisho njengesisusa sobungani babantu, njengoba ngokuvamile zikhipha abanakekeli emphakathini, kubonisa ucwaningo.) Uma ukuba nesilwane esifuywayo kungeyona inketho kwabanye abathandi bezilwane, ababhali bombiko batusa ukuzinikela endaweni yokukhosela izilwane, ukuhlela ukuvakasha kokwelashwa kwezilwane ezifuywayo noma ukuhlala kwezilwane ezifuywayo.
