How to calm dogs during fireworks
Close windows and curtains to muffle the sound of fireworks.
Put on some music or TV to mask the firework sounds
Create a quiet space where your dog can feel in control
Create some hiding places around your home
Walk them during the daylight
Small animals
Partly cover outside cages and pens with blankets so an area is soundproofed and hidden, but allow another area for the animals to look out
Provide bedding small animals can burrow in
Consider bringing them indoors – this will need to be done gradually so plan ahead
Cats
Provide hiding places in your home
Cats can become more stressed if they’re outside during fireworks
Microchip your cats in case they’re startled and escape outside
