“THINK before leaving them in a car on a sunny day, even with a bit of air – a bit of air sometimes isn’t enough.”
Fireworks Advice for Pet Owners
Vet charity PDSA is urging owners to take preventive action – especially those who took on a pet during the pandemic – in a bid to reduce the extreme distress and suffering that fireworks can cause.
Remember, Remember Our Pets
Our pets’ enhanced senses mean they can find the loud noises and bright flashes from fireworks overwhelming, which can lead to severe anxiety and trauma.
