Four-legged and frightened
The Hindu
If your otherwise happy pets seem distressed during Deepavali, they might need your help...
Deepavali isn’t the greatest time of the year for our pets. The loud noises of fireworks can make them anxious, uneasy and frightened. Dogs and cats have a hearing ability that is much stronger than ours. This means that loud sounds tend to be unbearable and torturous for them.
Before the celebrations begin, make sure your pet is well fed and hydrated. If its tummy is full, it might be less anxious later. When the noise begins, keep it in a room and close the doors and windows to shut out the noise as much as possible.
