You may already know that your dog or cat is scared of fireworks from previous years, or you may have a new pet, and this could be their first experience of fireworks.

There are some simple things that you can do to ease your petโ€™s stress around fireworks and we recommend starting to put things into place as soon as possible.

Here we have put together top tips to help keep them safe and comfortable throughout this time.

Please contact us directly at the practice if you would like anymore advice for your pets.

Fireworks can cause stress, anxiety, and even aggression in pets. Keep reading for our top tips on preparing your pet for fireworks season.

Tiptree Veterinary Centre

Located on the corner of Maypole Road and Barbrook Lane, The Tiptree Veterinary Centre has been operational since 1979 and has established a reputation for both clinical excellence and caring compassion. Tiptree Veterinary Centre is the only practice in the town with all the facilities on site, including operating theatres, laboratory, radiography and ultrasound, ECG and endoscopy, as well as three separate wards for hospitalised patients.

Our highly qualified and keenly motivated vets and nurses are passionate about what they do and will lovingly treat your animal as their own. Weโ€™re always learning and open to new skills. For example, did you know we offer Keyhole Surgery via our sister practice? We are now able to carry out a number of procedures, including spaying by keyhole, minimising the trauma and recovery time for so many animals.

Our nurses also run clinics for bandaging, repeat injections, blood pressure and blood glucose monitoring, they help with behaviour counselling and slimmerโ€™s club. We are also very keen to promote preventative care.

We still get emotional about seeing the journey of beloved family pets from first vaccinations to the final consultation; it might be our job but itโ€™s also our hearts that break when weโ€™ve nursed them and seen them recover and sent them home. Weโ€™ve been through the journey with our own pets and so we know how to deal sensitively with both their needs and yours.
