Fireworks may be fun for us, but they can be frightening for our pets. Studies show that up to 50% of dogs and 25% of cats experience anxiety from loud noises like fireworks—making the Fourth of July one of the most stressful days of the year for them.
Common Signs of Firework Anxiety
-
Dogs: Panting, shaking, barking, hiding, or trying to escape
-
Cats: Hiding, excessive grooming, decreased appetite, or aggression
Simple Ways to Soothe Your Pet
-
Create a safe space: Use a quiet room or crate with soft bedding
-
Play calming sounds: Try a white noise machine, TV, or soothing music
-
Keep them indoors: Close doors and windows, and double-check their ID tags
