Storm season is picking up in the Highlands, and plenty of pets find them stressful. A few things that help: 1. Create a safe, enclosed space they can retreat to (a covered crate or a quiet room works well) 2. Stay calm yourself — pets pick up on your energy 3. Background noise (a fan, TV, or radio) can help mask thunder If your pet’s anxiety is severe or doesn’t improve, it’s worth raising with your vet.
