In this two-minute read we look at ten steps you can take
to soothe pets through the anxiety-inducing fireworks season.

Halloween has been and gone and next up on the calendar is Bonfire
Night.

Some people enjoy it. Others endure it.

One thing is for sure, and that's with all the loud bangs,
strange sounds, and unexpected flashes it's a testing time, to put it mildly,
for our pets.

At CWB Property we love people, properties, and pets and
that's why we've collated these six tips for animal lovers in Mid Kent.

Check out these ten tips on keeping animal calm from the
RSPCA:

1)
Give them a walk during daylight hours to avoid
times when fireworks are likely to be set off.

2)
Close windows and curtains to stifle the sound
of fireworks.

3)
Put on the TV or radio to mask the firework
sounds.

4)
Create a quiet 'safe' space where your dog can
feel in control.

5)
Make some hiding places around your home where
they can retreat to.

6)
Give them a little extra TLC (tender loving care,
that one's from us).

Advice for cat owners:

7)
Just like you would do for dogs provide hiding
places in your home.

8)
Get them inside. Cats can become more stressed
if they're outside during fireworks.

Advice for small animal owners (rabbits, gerbils etc.)

9)
Partly cover outside cages and pens with
blankets to create an area which is quieter and hidden but make space for the
animals to look out and see where they are.

10)
Ensure there's bedding small animals can burrow
in as it helps them feel safer.

At CWB Property we are all about finding you a home
you AND your pets will love and feel safe and comfortable in.
