How do you know when your pet is frightened?
Not every pet reacts to fear in the same way.
Some will hide. Others may pace, tremble, pant, bark, meow or stay very close to their person.
Some may even try desperately to escape.
Storms, fireworks, unfamiliar places and loud noises can all trigger anxiety in pets.
If your pet struggles with these situations, don't wait until the next storm or fireworks display to think about what might help.
A safe place, familiar sounds, keeping them securely inside and staying calm yourself can all help.
And remember — fear is a real response, not bad behaviour.

Understanding what your pet is telling you is the first step in helping them feel safe.
