Here are key ways to make your pet’s New Year’s Eve safe and stress-free:

✔️ Keep Pets Indoors & Secure
Make sure doors, windows, and fences are closed and locked. Loud noises can make even familiar spaces feel unsafe to a scared pet. 

✔️ Create a Quiet, Comfortable Space
Set up a cozy “safe zone” with their bed, favorite toys, blankets, and maybe soft music or a noise machine to help mask outside sounds. Especially if they will be alone at midnight! 

✔️ Stick with Their Routine
Pets thrive on consistency — feeding, walking, and playtime should happen as usual to reduce anxiety. Extra exercise earlier in the day can also help them relax later. 

✔️ Know What Hazards to Avoid
Keep alcohol, party snacks toxic to pets (like chocolate, grapes, onions, xylitol), wires, balloons, and small objects out of reach. 

✔️ Identification & Preparation
Ensure collars have up-to-date ID tags and that your pet is microchipped with current contact info — it makes a huge difference if they do escape. 

✔️ Consider Calming Aids & Vet Advice
If your pet has extreme anxiety, ask your vet about calming options or medication ahead of time. Some people also use pheromone sprays, calming jackets, or desensitization training. 

With a bit of planning and safety measures, you and your furry friend can feel more at ease and ready to enjoy the transition into the new year together!
