🎃🐾 Keeping Your Pets Safe on Halloween 🐕🐱
Halloween can be a fun and festive time, but for our furry friends, the noise and commotion, especially fireworks, can be extremely stressful and even dangerous. Here are some tips to keep your pets safe and calm during Halloween:
1. Treat or Treaters visiting? The safest place for your pets during Halloween is indoors. Bring them inside well before the festivities begin. Designate a quiet, secure room in your home where your pets can retreat to. Provide their favorite toys, bedding, and water to make them feel comfortable.
2. Lots of fireworks? Close windows and curtains to minimize noise and flashes. You can also play calming music or white noise to drown out the sound of fireworks.
3. Heading outside?If you have to take your pets outside, even to the backyard, make sure you supervise them closely. Pets can panic and try to escape during loud noises. Ensure your pets have proper identification, including a collar with an updated tag and, if possible, have them microchipped. This can be a lifesaver if they escape due to fear.
4. Stay Calm: Your pets may pick up on your anxiety, so try to remain calm and reassuring. Offer cuddles and comfort.
Remember, if you see any animal in distress call us or DM straight away.
