A note on fireworks

Please remember that not everybody enjoys fireworks. The loud noises cause a lot of stress to companion animals, farmed and wild animals, in addition to people who may be suffering with PTSD. Be mindful of others and opt for entertainment that doesn’t involve fireworks.

Avoid dressing your companion animals up

Whilst dressing up is fun for humans, most animals wouldn’t enjoy it. Some of these costumes aren’t well-designed and can restrict the animals’ movements, causing them stress. This can also lead them to becoming injured. They’re cute enough without the costumes, so don’t take the risk.
