Firecrackers and your Furry Family

Diwali is almost here. The culturally in-depth “Festival of Light” is an amazing sight in the city of Pietermartizburg with hundreds, if not thousands, of brilliantly bright fireworks shooting off into the nights sky. One of the many reasons we love the Garden City is for the incredibly diverse cultural and demographical spectrum that has us celebrating all kinds of wonderful festivals.


We here at Longmarket Vet Clinic want to help out with a little advice to all of our clients and readers on how you could make the festival more bearable for your pets. We came across this poster on facebook on the Lost-Found-Need-a-Home-Maritzburg which has some great pointers. They are physical controls that will help your furry family settle in for the night.

We always promote effective behavioral controls over medication. However, if you know that your pet is particularly excitable and may become stressed to a point where they injury themselves, then we suggest popping into the practice for some advice on the different kinds of calming medication available.

Here is a wonderful article on Diwali and what it represents:
