Fireworks have started and our little Chihuahua is terrified, shaking like a leaf bless her, Our Westie on the other hand is oblivious to it and is snoring her head off.

Not anymore but Mrs W used to sit in the stable with a terrified horse until midnight every night for about two weeks every year. Was horrible, personally I'd ban them From General sale and limit the days they can have organised ones

Poor pooch is curled up on me.

He used to be fine as a nipper but now quite jumpy despite me trying to remain as calm as possible

My ex was a dog behaviourist and she will tell you it's about conditioning the pooch, nope I've no idea what she meant either

Our four kitties really couldn't care less. On previous years we've been unable to get them in before the fireworks started and they've sat in the garden watching them.

This year they are all enjoying a post dinner snooze

Our cat isn't terrified but he's jumpy. Sadly we had to have our 15 year old cat put to sleep on Tuesday and he's wondering what's going on there so fireworks aren't helping.

Our cavachon ws quite jumpy beginning of the week but a cuddle and a reassuring firm stroke on the top of her head and above her ears has calmed her dwn a great deal. She only just barks at the ones tat are too close now few and in between.

I constantly have a terrified pet. My cat is the proverbial scaredy-cat so he is always on edge. Has anyone got any useful tips on how to calm their pet when the fireworks are going off?

Feliway plug in is awesome for any type of anxiety with cats. It mimics the facial pheromones and helps them to relax. We use it all year round to help minimise the stress and disagreements of having a multi cat household

Thanks for the advice. I will give it a try for a stress free environment. Hopefully it can relive any anxiety he has.

My British bulldog is sleeping and pays fireworks no attention. My Staffordshire Bull Terrier watches them from my window.

Cats all snoozing & oblivious.

When I had dogs they were fine too. It's hard but you have to pretend nothing is wrong and then they'll calm down.

The cat seems pretty chilled about it this year, he's just asleep on the stairs. Previous years he's been really scared, maybe they're quieter this year.

Apart from a couple short round of very close fireworks,they just barked a bit at least not for long but when the volume of TV only goes to 100 doesn't mask loud noise,just surprised my German Shepherd was calmer than I thought as she normally tries to sit on my lap literally lol with any noises like this these days just cause she got a fright few yrs back,even the puppies had to start a chorus of barks at the sounds...ughs

My 9 month old, who barks and growls at all kinds of objects and noise, has slowly been getting used to them. He still jumps at the really loud ones, but ignores the rest. I see him looking at me for my reaction, so I ignore them too. The 6 week old isn't taking any notice at all.
