It's the holiday season! 🎄

The festive season brings joy and excitement, but it can also be overwhelming for pets. Changes in routines, unfamiliar guests, and festive decorations can create challenges for dogs, cats, and parrots.

By planning ahead and addressing their unique needs, you can ensure a safe and enjoyable Christmas for all household members—furry, feathered, or otherwise.

FABC-certified member Zoe Demery from Second Nature Behaviour for parrots, cats and dogs has written a blog article providing helpful information for caregivers on helping pets cope during the festive period.
