Bonfire Night is Coming, let’s keep your pets safe and calm 🎆
As fireworks season approaches, many of our furry friends find this time of year stressful and frightening. At Bridge Vets, we want to help you prepare so your pets feel safe, secure and calm.
🐶 Dogs:
Walk them early, before fireworks begin
Keep curtains closed and put on the TV or radio for background noise
Create a quiet, cosy space where they feel secure such as a crate (or in Lucas’s case- his m**s wardrobe!)
🐱 Cats:
Keep them indoors after dark
Provide hiding places and a litter tray inside
Try calming diffusers or sprays
🐹🐰 Small Pets:
Bring hutches indoors or cover with thick blankets to muffle noise
Add extra bedding for burrowing and comfort
💊 Need something stronger than natural remedies?
If your pet struggles with anxiety and calming products aren't enough, speak to us about prescription medication.
➡️ Book a consultation early – prescriptions must be ordered in advance to ensure they're ready in time.
