How to make fireworks less frightening for cats

With help from the RSPCA we've put together a guide to help make fireworks less frightening for your cat this New Year. 

Many animals find fireworks scary. It doesn't have to be that way though - there are lots of simple things you can do to help your pet deal with fireworks.

How to help cats who are afraid of fireworks

• Provide hiding places in your home, such as under some furniture or in a quiet corner.
• Don't try and tempt your cat out, as this will cause them to become more stressed.
• Consider keeping them in - cats can become more stressed if they're outside during fireworks.
• Microchip your cats in case they're startled and escape outside.
• Give your cat toys to distract and amuse them
