The 7 biggest mistakes on New Year's Eve
What is a reason to celebrate for us humans, can become a night of horror for the Pet. You should avoid these mistakes on New Year's Eve.
1.Walking at midnight
Maybe you're out at 0 o'clock to toast with the neighbors. However, your Pet should not be there. Because this would be the absolute horror trip for him. The loud noises, the bright lights and the many (sometimes drunk) people could get to your darling and scare him completely.
In addition, ricochets could frighten or even injure the pet! Because yes: Even if the sale of firecrackers is currently prohibited, this does not mean that some are not ignited nevertheless. Thus, some pets develop a deep-seated fear of New Year's Eve! (We have collected tips against the fear here.) Leave your pets therefore at the turn of the year in the house.
2. walking without a leash
Already in the days before and also after New Year's Eve is often banged. In these days you should leave your pet absolutely on the leash. The danger that a firecracker explodes somewhere and your darling runs away in fright is simply too great.
3.pet alone at home
If you have a fearful pet , one thing is absolutely taboo: to celebrate New Year's Eve at a friend's house and leave the pet behind with his fear. You certainly don't want your tail wagger to feel abandoned by you and have to get through this night alone, which is horrible for him. Nevertheless, nothing stands in the way of a celebration: Take the pet with you, if that is possible, or simply invite the friends to your place.
Important: Please note the current restrictions regarding the number of people.
4.Pity
Many pets are afraid on New Year's Eve. As a pet owner, you should take this seriously. However, instead of feeling sorry for your pet or wrapping him in absorbent cotton, you should behave as normally as possible. Because if you do everything exactly as you always do, you are most likely to give your pet a sense of security.
This is especially important if you have a puppy, because the fear of loud noises is in many cases inbred. Make a game with your little darling as soon as the first firecrackers pop or the fireworks begin before New Year's Eve, and be exuberantly happy when he is eager to participate. In this way, he will see the firecrackers as a positive signal in the future and be completely relaxed about the noise of the fireworks on New Year's Eve.
5. too much alcohol
For us New Year's Eve is a reason to celebrate, but you should not look too deep into the glass in the presence of your fluffy favorite. Pets perceive alcoholized people as untrustworthy. If master or mistress staggers and slurs, the four-legged friend feels quickly insecure, not only on New Year's Eve.
6. table fireworks and firecrackers
If your pet has a problem with the loud noises on New Year's Eve, you as a pet owner should refrain from using fireworks and firecrackers. This would only put the pet unnecessarily under stress and frighten and this in addition in the apartment, so his only safe place.
7. glaring light also at home
If on New Year's Eve at midnight the fireworks or the banging begins (someone finds finally still somewhere remainders ...), your pet feels not only the noise as unpleasant, but also the flood of light stimuli by the fireworks. Your pet should therefore have the opportunity to slide into the new year in a darkened room, preferably in his favorite place. Pull there the curtains or let the shutters down, so that your pet can come to rest.
We wish you a happy new year and most of all a healthy one! ♥
