Give Your Pet a Purr-fect Christmas

Christmas can be both an exciting, and a stressful time for your pets. Whilst it often provides a welcome oppawtunity to spend more quality time with them, new people to give them some fuss and the chance for them to enjoy tearing up all that wrapping paper, it can also mean disruption to their usual routine, and a more crowded environment bringing different noises and smells. It’s important to have a plan to ensure your pet feels calm throughout the festive season. 

​​​​​​​​​​​

Help your pet feel calm this Christmas 

  1. Try not to leave your pet home alone for long periods if you’ve got lots of socialising to do. They’ll miss you!

  2. Think about bringing your pet's bed, or a favourite chew toy with you if you’re spending Christmas Day at another house so they have something that smells familiar.

  3. Allow your pet to meet any visiting guests at their own pace when they feel comfortable.

  4. Help your pet feel more secure by doing your best to stick to their normal routines such as feeding times, exercise outings etc.

  5. Create a safe space for your pet so that if all the excitement gets a bit too much, they’ve got a quiet, cosy place to have some time away.

  6. Unless your pet is an Instagram influencer, try not to dress them up for the pupparazzi too much.

  7. Avoid Christmas decorations around your pet’s bed/cage so that you don’t upset their environment and prevent any unwanted trips to the vet. 

Safe dining for your pet

Does your pet have their own place setting at the Christmas table? Whilst your pet is likely to sit licking their lips watching you eat; some foods are incredibly harmful. To avoid upset stomachs and health problems, it’s best that your pet sticks to their normal food where pawsible. 

Don’t let them get their paws on:
 
  • Mince pies
  • Bones from carcasses
  • Chocolate
  • Christmas pudding
  • Onion gravy
  • Alcohol​​​​​​​
