๐ Guy Fawkes is coming up! Letโs keep our furry friends feeling safe. ๐พ๐
While fireworks can be exciting for us, the loud bangs and flashes can be scary and stressful for our pets. A little preparation can go a long way in helping them feel safe and secure!
๐พ Here are a few ways to help your pets through fireworks season:
๐ก Keep them inside โ Bring pets indoors before it gets dark, and keep windows, doors and curtains closed.
๐ต Drown out the noise โ Put on the TV or some calming music to help mask the sound of fireworks.
๐๏ธ Create a cosy retreat โ Give your pet a quiet, comfortable place to hide away where they feel safe.
๐ Plan ahead โ If your pet struggles with fireworks anxiety, contact our team early to discuss options to help keep them calm.
๐ Check their microchip details โ Make sure your contact information is up to date, just in case your pet gets frightened and escapes.
๐ฑ Stay calm and reassuring โ Let your pet seek comfort from you and give them plenty of space to settle if they need it.
๐ Need a little extra help? We have a FREE fireworks safety guide available on our website, packed with helpful tips to prepare your pets for the season!
