Are the bangs driving your pet crazy? Are you living in dread of the fireworks display that will be appearing in your neighbours' back garden to celebrate the New Year? Does it send your pet into a frenzy of terrified behaviour and a refusal to go outside for walks and the needs of nature? The secret of coping with a fear of fireworks is to spend a little time preparing in advance for the inevitable - use the following guide to give you some ideas on planning for the noisy holiday season: •Create a safe place for your pet to hide in. The idea choice would be the place that your pet may have already chosen, - just add extra soft furnishings and draw the curtains and provide good access so no harm is done by trying to squeeze into a tiny gap behind the settee for example. Avoid anywhere with windows and poor acoustics - such as rooms with hard floors. If you create a safe place for your dog using an indoor kennel, think carefully about where you can position it and never shut the door so that the dog cannot run elsewhere when the bangs start - if you have not chosen his of her ideal spot you will compound the error if you shut the crate door on your pet. •Switching on the TV or radio in the room can be a calming influence for your pet, but ONLY if this is a normal activity in the room - suddenly turning on the radio in the hall when you never listen to it here may well re-enforce an anxious pets' worry about strange noises appearing. •Some forethought is also required regarding toileting arrangements - provide one cat litter tray for each cat in your household in different areas around the house if you are keeping your cats indoors over New Year's Eve, and plan your dog walking so the times avoid any noisy activities to make sure your pet remains comfortable during the time that he or she is confined to the house. In addition to these planning arrangements, many of you will be aware of the Bach flower Rescue Remedy, which can be so helpful to people in difficult and traumatic situations. There are very few trained Bach Flower remedy Practitioners in the UK that have the additional qualifications to provide remedies for animals, but one practitioner, Lyon Whyte, has put her thinking cap on and, knowing how acute the sensitive hearing of our pets can be, has provided a unique combination of flower remedies to help address the sensation of fear, of being subject to situations which cannot be avoided, and of loosing confidence as a result in our pets. This remedy is preservative free, and works best when given in advance of occasions that pets react fearfully to, such as fireworks night, vets visits, new pets coming into the house. It is simple to use, does not require a prescription and has no known side effects, so try it this holiday season and let other site visitors know of your own tips and experiences using the onsite guestbook feature. |
