Your pet may need extra support as fall schedules fill up.
Between school, homework, sports, activities, and work, families can spend more time away from home during the fall. Pets who became accustomed to having everyone around may struggle when that routine suddenly changes.
Excessive vocalizing, chewing, scratching, indoor accidents, or refusing food while alone can be signs that your pet is having a hard time. Gradual changes, exercise, enrichment, and professional guidance can help make the transition easier.
