1. Create a Safe Space:
π Set up a quiet, comfortable area in your home where your pet feels secure.
π Include familiar items like their bed, toys, and blankets.
2. Keep Them Indoors:
π Ensure your pet is indoors before the fireworks start to reduce exposure to noise and prevent them from running away.
3. Block Outdoor Noise:
π Close windows, doors, and curtains to muffle the sound of fireworks.
π Use white noise machines, fans, or calming music to mask loud noises.

1. Stay Calm:
π Pets pick up on their ownerβs emotions. Stay relaxed to reassure them that thereβs nothing to fear.
2. Avoid Confining:
π Donβt lock your pet in a small space or crate if they arenβt used to it, as this could increase stress.
3. Distractions:
π Provide toys, puzzles, or treats to keep them occupied.
π Engage in activities they enjoy to shift their focus.
4. Comfort Them:
π Be present and gently comfort them but avoid reinforcing anxious behavior with excessive attention.
By taking these precautions, you can help your pets stay safe and comfortable during firecracker celebrations.
Happy New Year to you all. Best wishes from Pets Concern Team
