ā€œPaws and Relax TV came when we were doing some research into different types of content that will help our customers to relax and enjoy their flight,ā€ said Richard Dā€™Cruze in theĀ YouTube video below.

ā€œAnd we discovered some scientific research that proves watching images of cute animals can actually lower your heart rate and reduce stress levels.ā€

The line-up includes shows like the animated ā€œSimonā€™s Cat,ā€ ā€œSecret Life of Catsā€ and ā€œAmericaā€™s Cutest Dog.ā€
