A large percentage of individuals attached to pets may obtain happiness. However, associating pet attachment (intrinsic factor) with happiness may require leisure coping (extrinsic factor.) Therefore, further investigation into the subject of leisure coping could furnish pet owners with assistance in learning how to take advantage of leisure activities and better interact with pets to reach happiness. The relationships among pet attachment, leisure coping, and happiness were assessed in 346 pet owners aged 16-70. Pet owners rated their pet attachment using PAQ (Pet Attachment Questionnaire Short Form), leisure coping using LCSS (Leisure Coping Strategies Scale Short Form), and happiness using OHQ (Oxford Happiness Questionnaire Short Form). Data were analyzed by t-test, Pearson r correlation, Regression. The result shows 1) Pet attachment is related to happiness, 2) Pet attachment is positively related to happiness through the mediating effect on leisure companionship, and 3) Pet attachment is positively related to happiness through the mediating effect on mood enhancement. Hence, pet owners may be encouraged to be engaged in leisure activities (particularly leisure companionship and mood enhancement leisure) with their pets for further pet attachment and happiness.
