Pets are so important to our own welfare. They provide unconditional love, support and comfort which can calm our busy lifestyles and remind us to enjoy life. So when they are no longer acting themselves – it can be worrying and confusing to know how to help.

Unfortunately, our modern life can make it difficult for cats and dogs to adapt. Owners are facing the prospect of leaving their pets home alone more often while away with work or family.

Other events like parties, holidays, fireworks, a new pet or new baby are all part of normal life for us – but can be stressful and alarming for them without support.
