Products For Pets Who Are Afraid Of Fireworks
More pets go missing during the Fourth of July than any other day of the year, according to Dr. Carly Fox, a senior veterinarian at New York City's Schwarzman Animal Medical Center. Yet this sobering fact may not surprise pet owners, as the holiday is often marked by fireworks displays that can terrify animals. We asked Fox to recommend preparation measures and calming pet products for owners to implement in advance of fireworks. She noted that the efficacy of any soothing tactic depends on your specific pet and their level of phobia, and that 'there will likely be some trial and error as your figure out what works for your animal.' Read on for Fox's input below, with an emphasis on keeping your pet comfortable and securing your home. A weighted ThunderShirt for dogs with 32,000 5-star ratings Fox explained that some dogs find the ThunderShirt, a hug-like weighted wrap, very helpful. It helps ease anxiety through "applying pressure to the thorax ... similar to a swaddle," she said. If the ThunderShirt reminds you a bit of your weighted blanket, you're not wrong to make the comparison. Similar to how weighted blankets can be so effective for humans' anxiety, ThunderShirts provide consistent, gentle pressure that can help relax its canine wearer and reduce the data supports its use: "In a study, over 70% of owners thought their pet was improved after using this product," Fox ThunderShirt comes in four colors and seven sizes. Note: This is designed only for dogs. An option for cats is review: "If you've ever wondered if a Thundershirt would help your dog, I encourage you to try it. We have a sweet dog that has always been mortified of fireworks and thunderstorms. If we're in the den she will hide under my husband's chair and if she's in her kennel we have always had to let her out so she can be near to us at night when a storm starts. A few days before Independence Day I thought, Duh! Try a Thundershirt! I found one that came on July 3rd and quickly put it on her because our neighborhood kids had started lighting fire crackers. The change was immediate! You could actually see the change come over her! And what was even better was she knew it! You could tell she suddenly felt comfortable even though there were loud noises all around. Later that same evening we had a violent thunderstorm and she remained calm throughout. This from a dog who the previous week had climbed into the bed with me practically hyperventilating. Just amazing! She doesn't want to take it off now so I'll have to buy a second one so she'll have one to wear while the other is in the wash." —PlaceholderGet it in gray from Amazon for $39.99+ and in other colors for $44.99. And a weighed ThunderShirt designed for cats The ThunderShirt brand also makes a version for cats, which, like the dog version, helps promote calm and reduce anxiety through its gentle, hug-like ThunderShirt does touch cats' bellies, which some cats may dislike; however, as one reviewer wrote, "belly-shy" cats may still reap the benefits of the vest by wearing it as an unstrapped cape, as her own pet did (with supervision, of course). It's available in three review: "My kitty survived the 4th of July fireworks very well with this comforting vest on for the entire night. He was hiding in my walk-in closet, purring and eating his dinner, while I petted him. This was the most relaxing 4th of July he has ever experienced!! Highly recommend this for other nervous and anxious kitties." —Angela it from Amazon for $39.95. Ear plugs, like this bestselling noise-quieting cap In addition, Fox advised that ear plugs can be helpful for some on her recommendation, we think this noise-canceling head wrap is a great option for pets. Yes, it looks hilarious. But don't be fooled: It's a non-intrusive, ear muff-esque calming aid that helps dampen noise, reducing the stress of fireworks or other events like its soft, snug compression — much like weighted clothing — is designed to feel like being swaddled (or a "hug for your head") to further reduce designed for use by dogs and cats and comes in up to four sizes and five review: "I will admit I was skeptical when I purchased this item, but also desperate for a way to help my new pup get through the weeks of fireworks my neighborhood buys and explodes every summer. I was tired of seeing her anxious and unsettled, panting, eyes wide, unable to rest for hours every evening because of all the noises. This thing was like an off switch for my dog, I was so shocked, literally within 20 minutes the first night she had just laid down between my husband and I and passed out, she slept all evening. The next night it only took about 10 Minutes, the following evening 5 Minutes, and it really got to the point where it was basically instantaneous after a few days. I had already been using the Thundershirt to help with her anxiety, but this is what she needed! Between both of them she was just a sleepy lil nugget every evening. It's just a stretchy piece of fairly breathable material that goes around her neck and up over her head, I always make sure her ears are down and not wrinkled or in a position that would be painful or awkward for her, and she pretty much instantly just let's out a big sigh, lays down and goes to sleep. She can shake it off if she does the big 'wet dog shake' but it's easy enough to get it back on her. I Highly recommend this item if you have a pup anxious because of loud noises, storms, fireworks, etc., it's way cheaper than a pair of doggy earmuffs and works so well!" —Kristen it from Amazon for $9.99+. A drug-free pheromone diffuser for cats with 14,000 5-star ratings Based on Fox's advice to consider pheromone diffusers, we think the Feliway Classic version is a great option for cats. It's somewhat famous among cat owners for helping calm anxious kitties, reduce stress-induced behaviors like spraying and assist in introducing new cats to one another; my vet even recommended it to me for my own Feliway is designed to emulate the natural pheromones that cats mark their territory with when they feel safe, secure and at home. It thus may be helpful during potentially scary experiences like fireworks. This covers up to 700 square feet and is supposed to last for up to 30 reviews: "Feliway helps to keep my cats calm during thunderstorms and when people are doing fireworks." —Deborah Shanabrook"Seems to work great for my cat. Fourth of July fireworks did no bother him that much and putting a new roof on the house he seemed to cope well. Will buy again just in case." —KenGet it from Amazon for $24.99. Drawn curtains — like this pair of blackout curtains with 30,000 5-star ratings Preparing a calm environment in advance of fireworks can make a big difference for pets, according to Fox. To start, she advised dimming your lights and closing your advice rung true for me since the last time my cat encountered fireworks, I had left most of my curtains open, and the shades I did have closed were quite sheer (to let the light in, on any other day!). My cat was as scared by the sight of fireworks through the window as she was by the noise and vibrations. As a result, I've made sure to have blackout curtains on hand to help us withstand future fireworks.I bought two pairs of these insulated blackout curtains, which work beautifully to shut out light, come in tons of colors and sizes and (to my relief) were sufficiently affordable. I'm finding I'm sleeping better with them up, too. Get them from Amazon for $17.60+. A popular white noise machine to help obscure outside commotion "Using a white noise machine, music or TV to help drown out environmental noise" can also help create a more tolerable environment for your pet during fireworks, according to on Fox's recommendation, we selected this highly-rated portable white noise machine, which has garnered over 42,000 5-star ratings on Amazon. It offers 20 soothing sounds and 32 volume levels, plus lets you customize its duration using its timer. In addition, since it's so compact, you can take it on trips with your pet in case you encounter fireworks or loud events wherever you're headed. Promising review: "Purchased for our dog as he is afraid of loud noises (especially fireworks and thunder). Put it on brown noise and he was unaffected this past July 4th. We also use it when thunderstorms threaten the area. He now sleeps through them. Result was totally unexpected. We thought it might help, but these results are beyond our expectations. It is little and easy to pack. 23 sound choices are a lot so there should be something for everyone." —GolfnotproGet it from Amazon for $16.79. Name tag identification in case your pet runs away Since more pets go missing on the Fourth of July than any other day of the year, it's crucial to make ensure your pet is wearing proper identification, "including cats," Fox further preparation against your pet bolting at the sound of fireworks, Fox recommended making sure that your door and all your windows are securely closed. We like this engraved aluminum name tag, which you can customize with your contact information and the color and tag shape of your choice. It's available in two sizes, sports 37,000 5-star Amazon ratings and is made to be lightweight yet reviews: "It is perfect for their 4th of July collars. Easy to read." —Rosemary"If you care for your animal, or best friend, you need to get a tag with your name and phone number. Just in case they get loose from being scared of thunder or fireworks. This tag could and does help you get reunited with them if they run loose from separation anxiety, or just roaming. Help others find you when your little one gets out." —Typical customerGet it from Amazon for $4.88. Or location-tracking devices like AirTags Fox did not specifically recommend location-tracking devices, but based on her emphasis on pet identification and our own experience as owners of pets afraid of fireworks, we think Apple AirTags are another great tool to have in your arsenal.I found out the hard way that my cat is absolutely terrified of fireworks. The first time we experienced them together, I had never witnessed a pet so heartbreakingly afraid. She bolted from my room, and despite searching for her for hours, I was unable to find her and absolutely overcome with as Fox recommended, all our windows and doors were closed. I still don't know where she had been hiding, but luckily, she did eventually emerge safe and sound once the explosions died down. After that experience, I wasted no time in buying an AirTag, and I feel immeasurably more prepared with it affixed to her collar. Its ability to track her location means that during our next brush with fireworks, I'll be able to check that she is indeed inside the house while she's hiding (plus find her to keep her company) using Apple's FindMy if the worst occurs and she does escape my home in a panic, I'll be able to find her myself, as quickly as possible. There aren't words for how much more secure her AirTag has made me feel. For me, it has been worth every can check out pet collars for AirTags on Amazon it from Amazon for $22.99.

Too hot for outdoor walks? This Amazon walking pad will help you hit your step goals indoors (and it's 53% off ahead of Prime Day)
Walking is so good for you, but sometimes it's hard to get out the door. Now that it's summer, there will undoubtedly be some sweltering days to come, making things even more challenging. Walking pads are a great way to help keep up with your steps without having to leave the house on those dreadfully hot days. They're also ideal if you work from home and need to get some steps in on your lunch break. The bestselling Sperax Walking Pad from Amazon Canada is currently a whopping 53 per cent off, bringing its price tag down to $280 ahead of Amazon Prime Day 2025. It's shopper-approved, with reviewers calling it "fantastic" and "reliable." Plus, it's "easy to move" and store, too. Scroll below for more details on this epic deal. Save 53 per cent on this under-desk treadmill. The best part about this Amazon walking pad is that it comes fully assembled, so you can hop on it as soon as you unbox it. It supports up to 320 pounds and has a strong but quiet motor that won't distract you while you work (or binge Netflix). It has a sleek design that won't be an eyesore in your space, but if you don't want it occupying your room, it can easily be slid under a bed or sofa thanks to its handy wheels. The built-in LED screen will help you keep track of your progress, and the remote will help you adjust the speed without interrupting your stride. It's perfect for homebodies, WFH-ers, stay-at-home moms and anyone who just wants to reach their step goals in the comfort of their own home. ⭐️ 4.1/5 stars 💬 2,600+ reviews 🏆 "Great little treadmill, even for heavier people!" Amazon reviewers call this walking pad an "excellent item," and one person stated it's "great for the home office." They said it's "nice and compact," and fits perfectly "under a low bed when not in use." "If you want a small maneuverable treadmill, this is it," writes another. "It is so easy to set up," they continued. And a notable mention is that "there is no noise transfer between the floors" in their house. Save 53 per cent on this under-desk treadmill. Another shopper said they "absolutely love this" and dubbed it the "best purchase ever." However, they did note that "it's a bit shorter than big ones at the gym," so it takes a second to adjust to "slightly shorter strides." They also added that it's "perfect for small spaces." As for complaints, some have pointed out it has a "very short power cord" and that it "could be wider." Someone warned, "If you have really long legs and take big steps, this might not be for you." If you work from home, chances are you get fewer steps in than you should. You don't have to hit the gym or invest in an expensive treadmill to fix that — this walking pad is a great bang for your buck. You can even tuck it under your desk to multitask during the workday. And it's small-space approved since it won't take up any real estate. Plus, it's great for conquering your walking goals even when it's sweltering hot outside. However, be sure to read the specs before purchasing, as this may not meet your requirements depending on height and stride.
