Small Animal Care During Eclipse

Unusual Reactions: During a solar eclipse, pets may display unusual behaviors because, like humans, they are accustomed to being active during daylight hours and resting at night. The darkness caused by an eclipse can disrupt their internal clocks, leading to confusion and anxiety. The sudden increase in darkness during what should be the middle of the day is puzzling and disorienting for pets. Often, when darkness quickly increases during what should be daylight, storms follow. As a result, there may be a conditioned response in some animals to be expecting storms when the day suddenly darkens. This can be especially true in animals with storm anxiety. Those with a history of anxiety or storm anxiety may exhibit additional behaviors such as whining, pacing, panting or hiding. Because pets are creatures of habit, they rely on consistent routines related to feeding, playing and resting. When the sudden darkness of a solar eclipse mimics nighttime, pets also may interpret this change as a signal to start their evening routines, such as seeking out food early or looking for a place to sleep. Some animals rely even more heavily on light cues; birds are one example. If a pet bird is out of its cage, it may go back in and find its perch as if it is nighttime. Pet birds in the path of totality will likely be more vocal in periods prior to and after the eclipse, but silent during the peak eclipse. It is highly encouraged to maintain your pet’s daily routine or interactions so that they can feel a sense of normalcy and comfort during the eclipse, reducing the likelihood of stress or anxiety-related behaviors.However, if pets are exhibiting unusual behaviors, owners can provide them with additional comfort and reassurance. If pets are hiding, they may be too scared to interact, and forcing interaction may make them more nervous. For pets who are food-motivated, you can always gently talk to them, pet them, and give them their favorite snack as a distraction. Those who are too stressed to eat may crave physical touch, so you can calmly sit with, talk to, and pet them.

Safety Tips: Although humans are advised to wear special viewing glasses to protect their eyes during the eclipse, there is not much research to support information on pet eye safety during an eclipse. Lucky for us, they usually will not stare up into the sky simply out of curiosity, they may see us looking into the sky and follow our gaze to see what we are looking at, so if you have a pet with you, try not to look too long. Major cities in the path of totality are expecting large numbers of people, which can lead to increased noise, crowds and unfamiliar activity. These changes in the environment can be particularly unsettling for pets. I would not recommend taking pets to any eclipse viewing events, these will be very crowded and may increase anxiety even further. This is especially true if your pet is not used to large events, other pets or people.

Whether you look forward to it or dread it, Daylight Savings Time (DST) is a bi-annual ritual that's upon us again. While this one-hour time change may seem simple, the impact on our bodies and daily routines can be significant. In this blog, I'll explore the challenges of adjusting to DST and provide practical tips to help you smoothly transition into the new schedule. No matter your age or where you are in your wellness journey, these tips can help you minimize the negative impacts of the change.

1. The Impact of DST on Sleep Even though we only change the clocks by 60 minutes, Daylight Savings Time can disrupt our sleep patterns for as long as a week. This change can lead to difficulty falling asleep, staying asleep or waking earlier than usual. This disruption can result in sleep deprivation, fatigue, and decreased productivity. To mitigate these effects, it is essential to establish a consistent sleep routine, create a sleep-friendly environment, and practice relaxation techniques. These three simple adjustments can also help: a. Shut-off electronics 30 minutes prior to bed time. Expose yourself to more natural light than usual in the first few days of the time change c. Incorporate exercise into your daily routine to help regulate sleep patterns and improve sleep quality.

2. DST's Influence on Eating Habits

The time change associated with DST can also disrupt our eating habits, leading to potential weight gain or loss challenges. The shift in daylight can affect our hunger cues, leading to irregular mealtimes and increased snacking. Moreover, DST can impact our body's internal clock, affecting digestion and metabolism. To counteract these effects, it is crucial to maintain a regular eating schedule, prioritize balanced meals, and be mindful of portion sizes. Additionally, incorporating healthy, nutrient-dense snacks and staying well-hydrated can help regulate appetite and minimize tendencies to overeat. Using mindful eating moderation tools such as the 3-bite rule when indulging in low nutrient foods can help you stay in balance with caloric intake.

3. DST and Weight Loss

For individuals aiming to lose weight, DST can present additional challenges. The disruption in sleep patterns and eating routines can impact our body's hormonal balance, leading to increased cravings for low nutrient foods and decreased motivation for physical activity. To overcome these obstacles, it is important to: a. prioritize self-care. b. maintain a consistent exercise routine. focus on nutrient-dense foods (i.e fruit, veggies, whole grains, beans and legumes). Additionally, practicing mindful eating and seeking support from friends, family and wellness professionals can help you stay on track with your weight loss goals.

Daylight Savings Time affects more than just our clocks; it can significantly impact our sleep, eating habits, and weight loss efforts. Adjusting to DST can be challenging, but with the right strategies and mindset, you can make the transition smoother. So, let's embrace the change and make it work for us instead of against us!
