is one of the most stressful days of the year for many pets — and for good reason. Loud noises, unfamiliar guests, and changes to routine can easily trigger anxiety or reactive behavior.
But here’s the science-backed truth: when a pet’s physical and mental needs are met earlier in the day, they’re far more resilient to stress later on.
✅ Step 1: Physical activity like chasing satisfies deep-rooted instincts and burns off excess energy
🧠 Step 2: Calm the mind — puzzle toys and chews help regulate emotions and promote relaxation
💤 Step 3: The result? A more grounded, relaxed pet who’s ready for whatever the evening brings
This is enrichment backed by behavioral science — and it really works.
