• CAUSES OF CAT AND DOG STRESS

  Our pets can be affected by stress, just the same as us humans! Here are a few common causes of stress in cats and dogs: 
  
  Changes to their environment or home
  Whether you're moving house, moving furniture around or doing a spot of decorating, our cats and dogs can be sensitive to changes in their home environment. This can also include having new visitors in the home too. For example, friends coming over to visit, or even the introduction of a new baby (furry, or otherwise)! 
  
  Being given too much attention
  Some cats and dogs want all the attention they can get, but others really enjoy having their personal space. If your pet prefers a bit more alone time, they can become stressed if they're on the receiving end of too much attention. This can include being followed, excessively stroked or cuddled. All children should be closely monitored when spending time with cats and dogs to make sure they don't go OTT. It's great to get them into the habit at an early age of respecting your pet's boundaries.

  Holiday separation
  Taking your pet on your travels isn’t always an option, but holiday separation can be a real issue for some pets, particularly for cats. Itch Calming Supplement can help support cats and dogs to feel safe and relaxed when you’re away, helping to reduce signs of stress and anxiety.
  
  Fireworks
  As we all know, this isn’t just an issue on Bonfire Night. They can go off all year round with various celebrations taking place, although the main season can extend from October through to New Year. It’s not uncommon for dogs and cats to find the sight and sound of fireworks distressing.
  
  Threats to their territory
  Is there a new puss on the prowl in your neighbourhood? Or some imposter weeing on your pooch's favourite patch of grass? Our pets can be very protective over their home turf and the presence of a new dog or cat in their space can be unsettling. This may trigger a fight or flight response which is linked with heightened levels of anxiety.
  
  Visits to the vet
  From puffed up cats mewling from their baskets to dogs with their tails between their legs, the sights and smells of the vet's is enough to make any pet feel anxious. It could also have something to do with where the vet puts the thermometer...
