Good Dogs & Cats Say No To Fireworks

Health, News

 

Hello everyone, CEO Olivia here.  In the coming weeks we Canadians will be celebrating Canada Day & I nose my American neighbors will be celebrating Independence Day. These howlidays always include a tradition of the lighting of fireworks.  We live rurally & many humans come up this way to spend their Summer days at their cottages & often light fireworks off their decks or yards.  So today I want to remind everyone that most of us good dogs, cats & dog gone it most wild animals don’t like fireworks.

Fireworks are very loud & sound like thunder to good dogs, cats  & wild critters. Running away or trying to hide from the noise is a survival instinct. We just want to get away from those awful sounds. A terrified dog or cat will run away given the chance. Pounds & shelters often see an increase in animals after firework displays.

If you are celebrating with fireworks I would like to suggest you keep your good dog home & inside where it will feel safe; preferably not alone. Be sure to close the windows to lessen the sound. If your dog feels safe in a covered crate or under the bed, then by all means give them the option. My late furriend Micky Moo used to hide in the bathtub. Eddy can get so worked up he will have accidents in the house & paces frantically.  Putting your good dog in it’s Thundershirt before the fireworks begin is a good option too. Lavender oil waived under the nose or in a diffuser can also have a calming effect. You could also use Adaptil to calm your good dog. There is a pawduct called Feliway for cats that works in the same way.  We have both.

Eddy stays calm with Omega Alpha‘s EnduraStessEnduraStress is an all-natural blend of herbs that helps to bring a sense of calm, concentration & mental focus to support  your good dog or cat.  The ingredients of five herbs  contained in EnduraStress are adaptogenic herbs.  They are synergistic in the formulation  to reduce physical & mental stress. Give usual dose as close to the event as possible.  HuMom even doubles Eddy’s dose sometimes.  It is safe to do so.  EnduraStress is one of our most sought after Omega Alpha pawducts.

CBD Dog Health‘s holistic full spectrum extract (CBD) tincture, CALM for Dogs & Calm for Cats alleviates anxiety, stress, & fear. This tincture is formulated to improve your furlegger’s health & well-being while naturally relieving stress, noise anxiety, fear of storms & fireworks as well as separation anxiety. As a dog who has used CBD Dog Health‘s pawducts I nose they work.

It’s a stressful world out there even for us pampered pups & felines & that’s why with these Howlidays approaching we wanted to share with you some natural solutions to helping your good dog or good cat with their fireworks anxiety.

Stay safe & be calm this howliday.

 

Have a pawsome week, CEO Olivia, Dot, Jerry Underfoot & Eddy 💜

    Yes, all my cats are rescues or ferals, and fireworks (as well as thunder) terrify them. With July 4th coming up they will have an entire week of them to endure. Poor babies!! 🙀The crazy thing is we live in a state forest and fireworks are banned. Yet, every year people ignore that. I remember one year there were so many fireworks in my neighborhood that the roof of my house was covered in fireworks debris. Ugh!

    Truth be told, Olivia, not all of uprights from the US like fireworks either. Our mom was injured twice on two separate occasions over July 4th and she gets very nervous about them too. We wish people were more considerate.

    Your fur-iends,
    Elsa & Wilson, the House Pony 🐾
