How Do Seasonal Changes Affect Pets? Tips to Care for Your Pet During Autumn and Winter

We all know that people can get SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder) – sometimes known as ‘winter depression’ – at this time of year and it might seem like our pets feel down too, but how much do the seasons really affect our pets?

PDSA Vet Nurse, Nina Downing, explains: “Pets don’t suffer with SAD in the same way humans do, but that’s not to say they don’t feel different at this time of year.

Pica is a term used to describe the consumption of non-edible materials.

It’s most common in certain breeds, such as Siamese, Burmese, Tonkinese and other Oriental types, which suggests there may be a genetic component with the trait passing down family lines, but other domestic cats with no known Oriental ancestry can also suffer from pica.

What materials are eaten?

In Oriental breeds pica is predominantly referred to as ‘wool eating’ as this is the most common material chosen.

However this can pass to other natural and synthetic fabrics, with some cats preferring one particular texture.

Other materials made of rubber, leather, wood, plastic, cellophane, paper and cardboard are also popular.

When does this behaviour occur?

Some kittens at the age of three months or younger are already in the habit of chewing their bedding, but may grow out of this as they mature.

For others, the habit can continue well into adulthood and be resistant to intervention.
