1. Create a Safe Space
Figure out a quiet space in your home where your pooch can relax when anxious by the noise of Diwali crackers. Include toys, a comforting bed and a blanket to help them feel safe. Keep the windows and doors closed to muffle the sound, and consider playing calming music.
2. Resolve Anxiety Issues
As pets get anxious due to Diwali crackers and loud noise, they often face issues like sleeplessness, lack of appetite, frequent urination, isolation in corners and more. To prevent this issue, Fur Ball Story brings to you Calm Pet. A vet-approved, Ayurvedic medicine to relieve stress and anxiety during the festive season.
3. Balance Human Interactions
Your guests and people around would want to greet your pet, which might be overwhelming. So it becomes important to introduce them slowly or let them have their space, especially if your pet is shy or anxious. Inform your guests about your pet’s needs and encourage them to be gentle and calm around your pets.
4. Keep them Hydrated
Ensure your pet has access to fresh water at all times. Hydration is key, especially if they are feeling anxious.
5. Pet-Friendly Decorations
Some of the materials for Diwali decoration such as rangoli colors, flowers, diwali lights, candles, sweets and nuts can be harmful to pets. As some pets may chew these toxic items or their fur might catch fire.
6. Spend time with your Pet
Give your pets quality time as your presence can provide reassurance and ease their stress. Include them in the celebrations, dress them in comfortable festive attire and involve them in poojas.
7. Keep a First Aid Kit
Ensure you have a pet-friendly first aid kit at home which includes bandages, antiseptics, and any medications. Besides, pets may also suffer from indigestion, fever or skin allergies during the festive season. To resolve this issue, Fur Ball Story’s First Aid Kit is here. It equips you with basic necessities along with 100% Ayurvedic, Vet Approved and Natural medicines to relieve common health issues at home.

9. Pet-Friendly Treats
Try making DIY treats or buying pet-friendly treats that cater to their dietary needs and keep them safe while enjoying the celebrations.
