Its that time of year again!!
Guy fawks is on the 5th of November every year, and as many of you may have experienced, it's never just the weekend or the day of!
I'm so tired of having to find lost animals because inconsiderate people can't abide by the rules to only use fireworks on the days allocated to use them, but such is life, so let's work together to keep our animals safe!
Fireworks cause significant fear and distress to animals, compromising their welfare, and that is fact!
Heres some tips and tricks to keeping our fur babies happy.
Firstly, make sure your pets are microchipped and their details are up-to-date in the Companion Animal Register, this can include dogs' cats and rabbits!
Exercise your pet before it gets dark and bring them in the house if you can do so, close the curtains, play some white noise, and talk to your vet about medication to help reduce the stress.
If you are setting off fireworks, let your neighbors know so we can prepare and keep our animals safe! Or better yet go somewhere like the beach!
I love watching the sky light up as much as the next person, but please be considerate and kind, and if you need guidance on keeping your animals safe, just ask! I'm here to help xox
