🎆 Helping Pets Stay Calm This Fireworks Season

Bonfire Night and the festive season are fast approaching – and while fireworks bring excitement for us, they can be a source of real stress and fear for our pets. Many cats, dogs and small furries feel anxious during fireworks displays, and the signs aren’t always obvious: hiding away, panting, pacing, drooling or even destructive behaviour can all be linked to noise phobias.

At Millennium Vets, our team is here to help you prepare early and make the firework season less stressful for your pets.

✅ Practical advice – from creating safe spaces at home to using background noise and desensitisation techniques. Follow us on Facebook over the next few weeks for more advice. 
✅ Tailored support – our vets and nurses can advise on calming products, pheromone diffusers, supplements or, if needed, prescription medication. 
✅ Small pet tips – helping rabbits and guinea pigs feel more secure with extra bedding, shelter, and careful positioning of hutches.

The sooner you prepare, the more comfortable your pets will feel when the bangs begin. Don’t wait until the night itself – planning ahead makes all the difference.
