KEEP YOUR PETS SAFE THIS FIREWORK SEASONBy Ardmore Veterinary GroupWITH FIREWORKS season fast approaching, and the time for fireworks being much longer than simply November 5th, amongst all the fuss and frolics care must be taken to ensure our pets are safe and sound. Veterinary surgeries throughout the UK see an increasing number of pets requiring medications to calm them during this stressful time and for injuries resulting from fireworks. Because animals have such an acute sense of hearing, loud bangs and whistles are not just frightening but can even be painful to their ears. Therefore the general advice below can help to keep your pets stress free and safe during fireworks.• Always keep dogs and cats inside when fireworks are being let off.• Keep doors and windows locked to prevent pets escaping and to keep any noise to a minimum.• Drawing curtains and putting the TV/radio on –can help to drown out the unfamiliar noise of fireworks.• Never take your dog to a firework display.• Always make sure your pet is wearing some form of identification so that if they run away they can easily be returned to you.• Rabbits/guinea pigs/birds etc should be brought inside to a quiet room or to a garage/shed, and their hutches or aviaries covered with blankets to block out some noise and bright lights, but ensure there is adequate ventilation.

In addition there are a variety of treatments available for this stressful period that can be helpful, and it is worth talking to your vet about these for both this year and future events. So please have a wonderful fireworks night, but please don’t forget your pets.
