Ginger and Nuts
As Bonfire night approaches, many pet owners are faced with the challenge of ensuring their beloved companions feel safe and secure during the festivities. Angela, renowned for her expertise on the Ginger and Nuts show, shared her insightful advice on how to keep your pets calm and content during this time of year.
ANGELS TOP TIPS Kat Y (Ginge)
🐾 Tip 1: “Bringing Them In, Keeping Them Safe”
To shield your pets from the nerve-wracking noise, Angela suggests bringing them indoors. If you have outdoor pets like rabbits or guinea pigs, consider relocating them temporarily. If this isn’t possible, create a DIY soundproofing system by covering their cages with a thick blanket.
🐾 Tip 2: “Creating a Cosy Haven”
Creating a safe and comfortable area for your pets is vital. Angela recommends providing their bed, favourite toys, and blankets. For an added sense of security, drape a blanket over a table to create a cosy den where your pet can seek solace. And don’t forget to keep some treats nearby to distract them from the noise.
🐾 Tip 3: “A Peaceful Morning Walk”
To avoid startling your furry friend with loud fireworks, take your dog for its daily walk early in the daylight hours before the festivities begin.
🐾 Tip 4: “Masking the Noise”
Angela advises playing background music or turning on the television to create a consistent noise level that can help mask the sound of fireworks outside.
🐾 Tip 5: “Blocking Out the Light”
To minimize the visual impact of flashing lights, close all windows and draw the curtains, ensuring your pets are shielded from the unsettling visual stimuli.
🐾 Tip 6: “Be Their Comforting Companion”
If your pet is anxious, staying by their side can provide immense comfort. Alternatively, consider asking a trusted friend or family member to keep them company if you have to step out.
🐾 Tip 7: “Always Prepared”
Ensure your furry friend has proper identification, such as an ID tag and microchip, to increase the chances of a safe return if they run off out of fear.
🐾 Conclusion
By following these expert tips, you can ensure a serene and stress-free firework night for your beloved pets. Angela’s advice reminds us that a bit of preparation can go a long way in keeping our furry companions happy, safe, and secure during this exciting yet potentially challenging time of year.
