๐ Firework season is approaching! ๐พ
While fireworks can be exciting for us, they can be a really stressful time for our four-legged friends.
With firework season just around the corner, now is a good time to think about how you can help keep your pets calm and comfortable.
๐ถ๐ฑ A few tips to help your pets:
* Keep cats indoors and make sure they have access to a safe hiding place.
* Walk dogs during daylight hours, before fireworks are likely to start.
* Keep windows, curtains and doors closed to reduce noise and flashes of light.
* Put on the TV or some calming music to help mask the sounds.
* Create a cosy, safe space where your pet can retreat if they feel anxious.
* Stay calm and offer reassurance if your pet is frightened.
๐ Does your pet struggle with firework anxiety?
We also offer calming medication where appropriate to help pets who find this time of year particularly difficult.
If youโre concerned about your petโs anxiety, we recommend booking a review appointment with one of our vets to discuss the best options for them.
๐ We have appointments available this week, so donโt leave it until the last minute!
Get in touch with the team at Medivet Wokingham and letโs help make firework season a little less stressful for your pets. โค๏ธ
