Today we talk about the cat who is afraid of fireworks, unfortunately a very common condition among our four-legged friends.

Pet owners, dogs or cats that they are, they generally have a deep hatred for a particular day of the year: the last of the year.

A day when, unfortunately, fireworks are the order of the day in many cities. Obviously, however, there is not only the last of the year.

The fireworks are exploded for many occasions, whether it is the patron saint of the city, rather than mid-August or the village festival. And, unfortunately, it is always the felines that pay the consequences.

In fact, there are many cats that have this phobia. A phobia that can have many consequences, even death.

Obviously, in general, the cats most at risk of death from this fear are those who live on the street and not our domestic four-legged friends.

THE strays, in fact, frightened by the bangs caused by the firefighters, they could run without thinking, ending up under a car, for example.

But why is the cat afraid of fireworks? This phobia essentially arises from physical conformation felines.

Cats hear 4.5 times better than us. Imagine what noise could come in the ear of a feline following a firework? It can annoy us humans, let alone cats.

But what can we do to reassure them during the fireworks? As mentioned, the first thing to do is to make sure that our four-legged friend is at home during the explosion of the barrels.

If your feline usually goes out, absolutely avoid sending him out when the time for fireworks approaches.

We try to close all the doors and windows of our house. Both to prevent him from running away and to make him hear less noise.

Let's not force him to stay anywhere. He will know where best to go for shelter if scared.

We also try not to leave him alone, even if we don't have to force him to be with us. Let's make him understand that we are there, close to him. If he wants, he will come alone. But, speaking of phobias. Do you know what to do if the cat is afraid of the storm?
