The holiday season can be stressful for pets. Between long road trips, crowded airports, and unfamiliar surroundings, it’s not uncommon for pets to experience anxiety. With Thanksgiving gatherings and holiday festivities just around the corner, it’s essential to have a plan to keep your furry friend calm.
- Create a Comforting Space: Bring along their favorite bed, blanket, or toy to give them a sense of familiarity in new surroundings.
- Stick to a Routine: Even during busy travel schedules, try to keep mealtimes and potty breaks on a consistent routine. This helps reduce confusion and stress for your pet.
- Use a Calming Aid: This is where Thundershirt comes in. A Thundershirt provides gentle, constant pressure, much like swaddling a baby, to soothe anxiety and stress. Whether you’re facing a long drive or spending the day at a bustling family Thanksgiving gathering, this calming wrap will help your pet stay relaxed.
- Natural Calming Sprays: Consider using a calming pheromone spray on your pet’s bedding or carrier to further ease tension.
